Interested stuff. Talks about the Italian fashion industry and its role in fast fashion...Is that Zara? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-and-material-culture#post-1949327 Sun, 19 Aug 2018 00:28:20 +0000 Anonymous 1949327@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Started to read the piece. It is interesting to consider points in trend formation and development of fashion from old world tailoring to current pace of fast fashion. Fascinating that the focus was on Italy.<br /> I too have bookmarked it for more in depth studies.<br /> Thank you for providing it.<br /> And it saddens me to think of brain power and various skills that may be lost in this country because of immigration issues. Thank you for doing your part. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-and-material-culture#post-1949290 Sat, 18 Aug 2018 22:15:01 +0000 Anonymous 1949290@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Will read later this weekend if I can have some uninterrupted time.
