Who do they think they are? And, more important, who do they think WE are? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/deeply-offended/page/2#post-2000577 Sat, 09 Feb 2019 18:35:09 +0000 Angie 2000577@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Bijou, </b>GOOD POINT about Stella McCartney.

Stella McCartney is a bit of a beacon in the design world for her ethics.. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/deeply-offended/page/2#post-2000408 Sat, 09 Feb 2019 04:14:01 +0000 Karie 2000408@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Horrible, absolutely horrible.

As others have said, the most discouraging part of this is that there must be a market for it. If I saw someone wearing this, I would instantly form a lot of conclusions about her, and none of them would be positive. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/deeply-offended/page/2#post-2000089 Fri, 08 Feb 2019 13:44:07 +0000 Cee 2000089@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Holy crap...

Abhorrent. But what really gets me is that nowhere along the chain of command did anyone put their foot down and refuse or question whether this should go to market. I'm amazed there's no one in the fashion industry leaking these designs before they're released. Makes me think of Hannah Arendt's "banality of evil": atrocities happen when we all keep our heads down, as if getting the job done and selling the product matter more than being on the right side of history.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/deeply-offended/page/2#post-2000048 Fri, 08 Feb 2019 11:48:57 +0000 Anonymous 2000048@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>:( </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/deeply-offended/page/2#post-2000044 Fri, 08 Feb 2019 11:28:52 +0000 kkards 2000044@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>thank you Echo for saying so nicely what i thought as i clicked thru Sterling link....fashion at all levels has been&nbsp;egregious.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/deeply-offended/page/2#post-2000039 Fri, 08 Feb 2019 10:45:19 +0000 Anonymous 2000039@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Echo </b>-- I missed the stories about the lower end retail stores like Zara and H&amp;M. &nbsp;Thank you for bringing them to my attention. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/deeply-offended/page/2#post-2000023 Fri, 08 Feb 2019 08:41:16 +0000 Style Fan 2000023@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Evil.&nbsp; Not sure what the right word is.&nbsp; Thank you for bringing this to my attention Sterling.&nbsp; Not that I buy designer clothing but I want to be aware of what is going on in the fashion world.&nbsp; And thank you Echo for making me aware of the Zara and H &amp; M clothing evilness.&nbsp; I don't watch TV, etc. so miss all these things.&nbsp; Well, I don't miss them.&nbsp;</p> <p>Even more, I am going to be careful about where I buy my clothing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/deeply-offended/page/2#post-1999994 Fri, 08 Feb 2019 03:28:39 +0000 Jaime 1999994@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Disgusting and even sick.

How about H&amp;M's "Coolest Monkey in the Jungle" hoodie modeled by a boy of colour? And women fall all over themselves about loving Zara, but how about their bag with the swastikas? How about their children's striped shirt with the yellow star (death camp chic?)? How about their shirt exclaiming White is the New Black? This isn't a one-off thing for Zara (or H&amp;M, for that matter). It is pervasive in fashion, regardless of price point. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/deeply-offended#post-1999946 Thu, 07 Feb 2019 23:52:44 +0000 Column 1999946@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz took the words right out of my mouth.
