Hello fellow cumrades!
Please make sure to read the introduction to know how the concept works
The Ethical Slutwear line not only aims on making leftism sexy again but also follows an anti-capitalist approach, uniting fair production with accessibility.
Here’s how it works:
All shirts are sold for a minimum price, meaning you only pay for the work that has been put into creating and manufacturing the shirt - that’s it, no profits made! By doing so, the shirts can be produced in the most sustainable, ethical - and expensive - way possible, while still keeping them accessible. However, if you do find yourself in a financially privileged position and want to support this brand, you can choose a different price category and pay more. For the upcycled shirts, I am still working on a system to incorporate that concept. I would invite you to reflect on your own standing in society and how much you would be able to invest in a T-Shirt.
This is an experiment based on trust and the idea that ethical production is only possible if those who own more, give more.
