This coming Friday is the second anniversary of the tragic Rana Plaza garment factory collapse in Dhaka, Bangladesh. This date is forever ingrained on our memories. It has been named Fashion Revolution Day – a promise that we will never forget all those lives lost for fashion…

So, what can we do to make sure this kind of incident never happens again?

Fashion revolution day is a global day of awareness-raising and we need you!
