A fun @wsj article revealed raids by Italian prosecutors on Chinese-owned factories manufacturing the brands Dior and Armani in Italy. The working conditions were inhumane. The workers were making 2-3 pounds per hour. According to the article Inspections by Italian police in March and April found workers subject to “hygiene and health conditions that are below the minimum required by an ethical approach,” the judges wrote in a 34-page court order.
Workers often operated machines from which safety devices had been removed to increase productivity, compromising safety, prosecutors said. Workers also lived, ate and slept at the workshop. Electricity consumption data indicated that employees typically worked from dawn until after 9 p.m., including on weekends and holidays. Check out the article for more info. This is also another reason we need bills like the Fashion Act to pass. We need more transparency in all brand supply chains. #sustainability #supplychain #fashion #luxury #lvmh #dior #armani

Every year I go to Coachella its always a blast!!! It’s my favorite place to watch live music. It's guaranteed to be a good time every time! I met so many sweetie pies. Also, for the friends at weekend two there is a vegan sandwich spot called @maciels.plant.butcher get the smokey. I've been thinking about this sandwich since I had it. Anyway, here are some fun posts from my Coachella adventure.
If you're going today or watching the live stream we saw @dukedumont@majorlazer@fosterthepeople@iggypopofficial@officialfatboyslim@anyma@kaskade , and @karolg I think that was it. They were all so fun!! #Coachella #music #dance #fun #festival
older sister advice I would tell everyone is to surround yourself with people who are full of love and light or else they will try to dim yours. 💡✨ no jealousy 🙅🏻♀️
