In the article \u201cShoppers face hurdles in finding ethical clothing\u201d by Anne, the ethical fashion raises the shoppers\u2019 awareness of where their clothing is made in.\u00a0 A recent building collapse in Bangladesh that killed hundreds of garment workers not only stirs peoples\u2019 sympathies but also brings them into thinking that they might need to pay more attentions to where the clothing are from and in what working condition they are made.<\/p>\n

To be honest, as a big shopper for clothing, I barely paid attentions to where my shirts are from but the price when I looked at the label. It sounds really apathetic and immoral when consumers indicate that they are not concerned about the working conditions, but its shoppers\u2019 natures to purchase the goods at the lowest price and best quality instead of better working condition for the garment workers. From the companies\u2019 perspective, it\u2019s difficult for them to supervise if the clothing is \u201cethically made\u201d overseas and they will tend to squeeze their costs on labors in order to maximize the profits, which might eventually jeopardize workers\u2019 benefits. Thus, social responsibility of business lies on all the stakeholders including customers, producers and so on. Ethical fashion is a good start to change the appalling working conditions in Asia because producers can lead the fashion and shoppers will go with the flow. In this way, both of them will eventually come into consensus that \u201cethically made\u201d shirts are more appealing than some shirts that are made by a 9-year-old boy.<\/p>\n
