Overview
The BIP: Planet Fashion or Fast Fashion project
is an interdisciplinary initiative aimed at exploring the environmental, social and ethical challenges posed by the global fashion industry. The project seeks to raise awareness about the impacts of fast fashion, encourage critical thinking and inspire creative problem-solving.
