Are you a fan of fast fashion?

Kelly Dennett Reporter from Sunday Star Times

Many of us grew up flocking to Glassons, Hallenstein's, Cotton On and Just Jeans for our hardy perennials - jeans, t-shirts, summer dresses - and some of us still do.

But we're increasingly becoming aware that buying a $20 t-shirt that won't last the distance isn't that great … View more
Many of us grew up flocking to Glassons, Hallenstein's, Cotton On and Just Jeans for our hardy perennials - jeans, t-shirts, summer dresses - and some of us still do.

But we're increasingly becoming aware that buying a $20 t-shirt that won't last the distance isn't that great for the environment.

While some of us are pledging to only buy second hand or to invest in statement pieces - more expensive items that will last a long time- not all of us have that luxury.

We're wanting to speak to someone who isn't giving up their fast fashion any time soon, whether it's for economic or style reasons, personal choice or indifference to the environment. Maybe you're a student who likes the choice chain store fashion brings, or perhaps you're a parent whose children are growing too fast to risk splashing out on expensive clothing.

If this sounds like you, please email kelly.dennett@stuff.co.nz.

I am in the middle of completing my PhD about how we can improve people’s quality of life regarding their neighbourhood and community.
This information will help planners and policymakers make smarter decisions in urban planning for a more socially and environmentally sustainable future.

For my final piece of research, I need your help.

I have created a survey to collect people’s opinion on what quality of life means to them and which urban characteristics contribute to a high or low quality of life.

Please could you take 3 minutes to quickly participate in this survey and share it with your family and friends. All data collected is completely anonymous.

Here is the link: forms.gle...
