- readhn 7y agoas i said "and no, if something is super expensive it does not mean its high quality!" you have to know who you are buying from. yes, majority of big labels these days use cheap outsourced labor. Italy - is importing cheap asian workers, so yes you have to watch out. Basically know who you are buying from. There are plenty of businesses who still value their workers and their products.
- notfashion 7y agoValuing workers is separate from valuing quality. I don't think the article I linked to implies in any way that the exploited workers are doing inferior work.
