Can you ever be completely sure your clothes weren't made in a sweatshop?

The only way a fashion brand can ensure that a factory abides by the rules is to fully own it. The fact is, many companies also contract out to factories that sometimes then subcontract. Photo: Freepik Ever since the 2013 disaster at Rana Plaza in Bangladesh, the deadliest accident in the history of the garment industry, it has been impossible for anyone to deny knowing that there is a labour crisis in the modern fashion world. It is one that prioritises the constant production of more and cheaper stuff over the safety and livelihoods of many of the people employed to make that stuff. Since then, a variety of laws and private agreements have been put in place to supposedly change this reality, but in fact every year seems to bring new revelations about fashion brands being caught for working with manufacturers that enforce sweatshop conditions. Once upon a time these revelations centred primarily on fast-fashion or mass-fashion brands working with factories far overseas, but lately, they have also come from luxury houses that are working with factories in Italy. Brands such as Dior, Armani, Valentino, Montblanc and Loro Piana have all gotten in trouble because of factories in Italy said to be operating with abusive conditions. Often the factories that have been subcontracted by factories the luxury brands officially employ, though similar stories have been made public since the release of the 2007 documentary Luxury Slaves . Read more: Has luxury fashion lost its appeal? Signs of shopper fatigue persist This is particularly jarring, because for years luxury brands justified their high price tags by pointing to the quality of both the materials and the labour as well as the know-how involved in creating their products. The implication was that part of what you were paying for was the security that what you were buying was made in a responsible way, by people who were fairly paid for their expertise. This is why 'Made in Italy' and 'Made in France' became synonyms for 'made well'. Not anymore. These days, policing supply chains can feel like playing Whac-a-Mole. As soon as one bad actor is exposed, another one pops up. If you want to know how bad it is, check out the investigations of a nongovernmental organisation called Transparentem that is focused on stopping modern slavery. It has looked into the supply chains of more than 100 apparel companies. So what's a consumer to do? It's not enough to check to see if a brand claims to demand a code of conduct by their suppliers. The only way a brand can ensure that a factory abides by the rules is to fully own it. And while brands such as Louis Vuitton and Hermes do, many companies also contract out to factories that sometimes then subcontract. A lot of them, it turns out, don't have complete pictures of where their products are made. As luxury has spread, the fashion supply chain has become ever more far-flung and complicated. Often single factories cannot produce the quantities demanded to ensure growth. As sales slow and consumers rebel against the constantly rising prices of handbags and cashmere coats, companies have to increase their profit, and some have done it by paying less on the back end. Indeed, Ben Skinner, the founder of Transparentem, recommends looking at a 2023 benchmarking study conducted by the Business & Human Rights Resource Center and KnowTheChain. He said that the study 'found that many luxury brands scored poorly, with brands such as Burberry, Ferragamo, LVMH (owner of Loro Piana) and Prada ranking near the bottom'. Read more: 'Moving far too slow': Fashion labels lag behind on sustainability pledges In the end, the safest approach for those looking for certainty about how their clothes are made would be to think small and local. Companies such as Alabama Chanin offer clothes handmade by artisans in the community, using cotton sourced, ginned and dyed by onshore mills. It's the fashion equivalent of 'know your own food'. The products are more expensive because of it, but it may be a taste worth acquiring. – ©2025 The New York Times Company/Vanessa Friedman This article originally appeared in The New York Times.

Musk's X accuses Britain of online safety ‘overreach'

PARIS: Elon Musk-owned social network X on Friday accused Britain's government of 'overreach' with a new law designed to protect children from harmful online content such as pornography. The Online Safety Act's 'laudable intentions are at risk of being overshadowed by the breadth of its regulatory reach,' X said in a post to its Global Government Affairs account. 'A plan ostensibly intended to keep children safe is at risk of seriously infringing on the public's right to free expression,' it added, arguing that the impact 'shows what happens when oversight becomes overreach'. Beyond the law, X criticised a separate new code of conduct for online platforms as 'parallel and duplicative' as well questioning the free-speech impact of a new police unit tasked with monitoring social media. The social network nevertheless last week introduced formal systems for age verification in response to the British law as well as new rules in Ireland and the wider European Union. Its options range from estimating the age of a user based on the date their account was created or their email address, to requesting a selfie whose age would be determined by artificial intelligence, or uploading an official ID document. Media regulator Ofcom says such age checks -- required since July 25 -- must be 'technically accurate, robust, reliable and fair'. Platforms failing to comply risk fines of up to 18 million pounds ($24 million) or 10 percent of their global revenue -- whichever is larger. Serious infringers could be blocked from British territory. The fight over age verification to access sensitive content in Britain echoes months of debate in France over new rules requiring pornography sites to verify users' ages -- a step also required by many US states. While hailed by child safety campaigners, opponents say such requirements risk compromising legitimate users' privacy -- or even exposing them to scams such as identity theft if the personal details used to verify their age were to be hacked. Many people resort to virtual private networks (VPNs) to get around territorial restrictions on access to online content. The most popular free apps on Apple's UK download store since last week have been VPNs, with one, Proton, reporting earlier this week a 1,800 percent rise in downloads, according to British media. - AFP

From Bekenu to the books: Porwosujarwati's legacy recognised in ‘Sarawak Women Book'

Porwosujarwati receiving the Sarawak Women Book from Fatimah in Kuching on July 31, 2025.. MIRI (Aug 2): Being featured in the 'Sarawak Women Book 2025 – Sarawak Women Creating Legacies' is something that local entrepreneur Porwosujarwati Suhaimi hails as 'a dream coming true'. The 12th edition of the book was launched in conjunction with the Women's Day 2025 celebration on Thursday by State Minister of Women, Childhood and Community Wellbeing Development Sarawak Dato Sri Fatimah Abdullah in Kuching. Porwosujarwati was among 27 outstanding women representing diverse professional backgrounds such as education, sports, public service and entrepreneurship. The 40-year-old entrepreneur runs a successful duck farming and vegetable cultivation venture under the brand 'Watiza Agrofarm', based at Jalan Kampung Opak in Bekenu, Sibuti near here. Watiza Agrofarm is among the notable Bumiputera-owned enterprises producing and distributing salted eggs that meet growing market demands in Bekenu and Miri. In addition to duck farming, Porwosujarwati's operations include cultivating a wide range of vegetables and herbs including chillies, eggplants, okras, cucumbers, pumpkins, baby corns, jackfruit, lemongrass, turmeric, galangal, and also taro. Among her key achievements this year was winning a business grant under the Rural Business Challenge (RBC) 2.0, where she was the sole recipient from Sarawak to be awarded the grant by the Ministry of Rural and Regional Development (KKDW). 'I would like to share this joy with everyone who has stood by me through the ups and downs,' said Porwosujarwati, hailing the award as 'a testament to what determination, hard work, and support could achieve'. 'This award proves that with effort, prayer, and support, nothing is impossible. Don't be afraid to dream big. 'Hard work is essential to achieving those dreams,' she said. entrepreneur Porwosujarwati Suhaimi Sarawak Women Book 2025
