brands to avoid?

I was looking into a brand my friend told me about and it seems to be fast fashion but digging a bit deeper literally every affordable brand is fast fashion, but the point is just tell me brands I should stay away from no matter what.

The guide is kinda confusing, basically should I buy from a seller like boohooman? They aren't on that guide but Uniqlo and other companies also seem to violate human rights

Fast fashion is not the same as cheap clothes. Uniqlo isn't fast fashion

it absolutely is lmao, but that's not to say you shouldn't shop there you can make good stuff and still be fast fashion, they aren't mutually exclusive

proper laundering can also extend the longevity of something from a fast fashion brand (or anything really) if the concern is quality if the concern is of ethical business practices then that's a separate conversation lol

Well okay I meant it's not just fast fashion. And less fast than shein or h&m

I think there’s different “fast”levels to cheaper clothing stores. Like Uniqlo might be slower than Zara or H&M but “slower” than something like Lands End or maybe even Hanes I mean faster than Lands end and hanes
