The Real Value

Shifting perspectives: understanding quality over disposability


Sustainability must pass through a re-education on the real value of products, quality, materials and skills of those who carry out the work and bring them to life. It’s about understanding and respecting the craftsmanship, the workers and their rights. In fact, without this awareness, sustainability is just another empty promise.

These values are the opposite of a fashion system that has adopted fast food as a productive and consumption model. A system churning out disposable goods at an unsustainable pace, prioritising speed and profit over quality and ethics.

Since the explosion of fast fashion people have been conditioned to buy disposable clothes—pieces designed to be worn a few times and then discarded. Now, how can they truly understand garments that follow a completely different standard

Higher value means higher quality, carefully sourced materials, and skilled craftsmanship. But with that comes a higher price—one that reflects the real cost of ethical production, not just a marketing strategy.

Bridging this gap requires awareness. Understanding the true worth of what we wear starts with questioning our habits and the system that shaped them. So, shifting perspective to understanding quality over disposability is crucial.

Self-education can make a difference.
