Claremont McKenna College The Future of Fashion: Corporate Social Responsibility and Essential Marketing Strategies Submitted To: Professor Jeff Lewis by Taite A. Jorgensen for Senior Thesis Spring 2021 May 3, 2021 2 3 Abstract This paper analyzes how fast fashion has impacted future trends of the fashion industry. Due to globalization, the fast fashion industry has been able to create new norms of over- consumerism and international labor. Because of this, the fast fashion industry is able to mass produce in a way consumers have never seen before, in addition to making it all at extremely low prices. However, fast fashion brands are only able to mass produce cheap goods through unethical methodologies; these methodologies include unsustainable materials and practices, inhuman labor conditions and wages, and by making sizes that exclude bigger bodies. Consumers are now realizing how detrimental these practices are, and in result, they want to see more brands that focus on corporate social responsibility.
