ABOUT THE KINDCRAFT

Together with our global team of contributors, THE KINDCRAFT publishes a digital magazine and a curated newsletter which explore all areas of the design and making process with original essays, trend reports, interviews, and photography. We also tell the stories behind many of the products we sell in THE KINDCRAFT SHOP, which features limited edition design collaborations and a curated collection of handmade goods and slow fashion. Our work has been profiled by WGSN and Entrepreneur Magazine and we now offer advisory and design services to brands, businesses and groups around the world who, like us, are invested in promoting more ethical design processes and the celebration of cultural heritage.

Garment workers have always been vulnerable and th

Garment workers have always been vulnerable and the COVID-19 pandemic is making matters worse. When fashion brands don’t pay, workers and their families go hungry. According to @remakeourworld, garment industry exports account for 80% of Bangladesh’s exports. Since the arrival of COVID-19, over $3 billion in orders from the US, UK, and EU have been cancelled or paused there leaving suppliers unpaid for work that was already completed. Here in Los Angeles, California, garment workers aren’t making the US minimum wage and @garmentworkercenter is fighting for social and economic justice. Let’s support the women who make our clothes and tell brands like @gap @bananarepublic @oldnavy @primark @urbanoutfitters @anthropologie @freepeople @liandfung @jcpenney @kohls @sears @walmart @topshop @fashionnova @kendallandkylie @levis @the.children.place to pay up! I’ve been sharing some resources in Stories and you can also follow @remakeourworld @cleanclothescampaign @extinctionrebellion @garmentworkercenter @fash_rev for more information and links to petitions. This photo of a garment worker named Nary, who was striking for back pay, was taken by my husband, Justin (@veritrope) in Phnom Penh, Cambodia when we interviewed her for an article for thekindcraft.com three years ago. These problems aren’t new but the pandemic is making them worse. Let’s work together for #justiceforgarmentworkers! #payupfashion
