NAYELI AZUL

ayeli touches on a variety of important concepts in the world of fashion, including fast fashion, sustainability, reusing clothing, and personal expression through clothing. In today’s society, fast fashion has become a norm, with clothing becoming disposable and worn only once. This is because “there’s a certain culture within this generation that requires every outfit that you wear to be original.” Fast fashion companies cater to these demands by sourcing large amounts of clothing quickly, but this results in negative consequences for both the environment and workers in the fashion industry. Nayeli makes the claim that these results could be mitigated by not treating clothing as disposable. People often do not consider the option of reusing clothing. Nayeli stresses rejecting fast fashion and reusing clothing, even if it requires a little bit of mending.

Sure it might wearout a little but that’s what a needle and thread is for.

Nayeli’s personal approach to fashion involves hand-me-downs, second-hand clothing, and a little bit of creativity. They express themselves through their clothing choices without having to rely on fast fashion companies. This promotes the concept of slow fashion, which is a sustainable fashion practice that involves making clothes last longer through mending, upcycling, or buying high quality clothes to begin with.
