On April 24th last year, 1133 people were killed when the Rana Plaza factory complex collapsed in Dhaka, Bangladesh. Many more were injured. Today, people are still suffering as a direct result of our fashion supply chain.
Fashion Revolution Day says enough is enough.
On this first anniversary of the Rana Plaza disaster, we’ll start by remembering its victims and raising awareness of the fashion industry’s biggest challenges. But because we want fashion to be a force for good, we’ll also be celebrating fashion and spreading excitement about the power it has to make big change happen fast.
To put our plan for a better fashion world into action, this year we’re asking one simple question: Who Made Your Clothes? We’re asking everyone who’s part of Fashion Revolution Day to help by wearing an item of clothing inside out, photographing it and then sharing it with the hashtag #insideout.
Around 40 + countries have joined in along with UAE. Future Fashion are proud to be representing UAE. The event will be held at The Change Initiative on Sheikh Zayed Road.
There will be DIY workshops during the event (repurposing your clothes, reuse them, quiz’s, talks on the initiative etc).
