Example of non ethical brands
When researching non ethical clothing brands, there was a huge list of shops and brands that don't make their clothes in an ethical way. These are examples of brands that are non ethical.
Forever 21
Forever 21 is an American fast fashion retail store, who is the 5th largest specialty retailer in the United States. It started off as Fashion 21, but now it has grown into the clothing lines Forever 21, XXI Forever, Love 21, and Heritage throughout over 600 stores in the Americas, Asia, the Middle East, and the UK. They offer low price products for men and women and more than 60% of its apparel, which are accessories, beauty products, home goods, and clothing, are made in China.
Calvin Klein
Calvin Klein is one of the fashion design and marketing studios in the world. They design men and women's clothing and collections, including Calvin Klein Collection, Calvin Klein Platinum Label, Calvin Klein Jeans and Calvin Klein Underwear. It was founded by Calvin himself in 1968 and the first Calvin Klein collection was a line of "youthful, understated coats and dresses" featured at the New York City store Bonwit Teller; by 69 he appeared on the cover of Vogue magazine. To clothes are priced over £30 to over a £100 and when you think about that price, is it worth it for the quality.
Converse
Converse is also an American show company, who produces skating shoes and lifestyle brand footwear and apparel. Converse have been making Chuck Taylor All Star and One Star sneakers since 1908 and now they work to make new street style classics, by letting you make the new trends with the shoes from converse. The company sells the items through retailers in over 160 countries and through approximately 75 company-owned retail stores across the United States. Converse want to continue making shoes that will go far into the future with you, and by doing that, they will continue coming out with new or old ideas to make them better than any other shoe brand.
