Extinction Rebellion continued their climate change protests during London Fashion Week:
urged citizens to “boycott fashion” by refraining from buying new clothing for a year, an effort to address the staggering excesses of global production.
If designers are improving the way they make clothes, why does XR still believe fashion week needs to be cancelled? In short, it’s fashion week’s overarching message of new, new, new. “During fashion month, the industry travels to global destinations to parade, see, and buy fashion, [and] it creates the desire that results in the consumption of fast fashion and beyond,” XR wrote on its Facebook page.
It’s hard to imagine fashion week disappearing, but who knows? This season’s shows have already prompted questions about how we should engage with fashion, with designers staging major, celebrity-studded events in lieu of runway shows or stepping away from the catwalk entirely. Plus, XR ostensibly knew the industry wouldn’t warm to their ideas right away; the goal right now is to simply get the right people talking about it.
