You probably know the statistics: global clothing production has roughly doubled in just 15 years, and every year an estimated 300,000 tonnes of used clothing ends up in uk landfill.

Fast fashion is the ultimate toxic relationship. It's bad news for the planet, our brains and our bank balances. We can't go on like this; our shopping habits need an overhaul.

Journalist Lauren Bravo loves clothes more than anything, but she's called time on her affair with fast fashion in search of a slower, saner way of dressing. In this book, she'll help you do the same.

How To Break Up With Fast Fashion will help you to change your mindset, fall back in love with your wardrobe and embrace more sustainable ways of shopping - from the clothes swap to the charity shop. Full of refreshing honesty and realistic advice, Lauren will inspire you to repair, recycle and give your unloved items a new lease of life without sacrificing your style.

Because fashion belongs to everyone, but no outfit should cost us the earth.

This book offers a practical and honest approach to moving away from fast fashion consumption. Lauren Bravo, a journalist who openly admits her love for clothes, provides realistic guidance on developing more sustainable shopping habits. The book addresses the environmental impact of the fashion industry while offering concrete alternatives like clothing swaps, charity shopping, and garment repair. Rather than demanding readers give up style entirely, Bravo focuses on changing mindsets and rediscovering appreciation for existing wardrobes. The tone appears to be encouraging rather than preachy, making sustainable fashion choices feel accessible rather than overwhelming.
