About FASHION ACTION

We are a self-organizing group of fashion justice activists based in the Netherlands consisting of a variety of people. We take action against the fashion industry in various ways, from joyful and artistic actions to disruptive direct actions, preferably a combination of both.

The fashion industry is one of the driving forces behind the climate crisis and it's based entirely on neo-colonial models of exploitation of people (in particular women of color), animals and the planet. We despise and refuse fashion as an industry for its many toxic elements. We believe that fashion shouldn't exploit people, destroy the planet or make us feel bad about ourselves. Refashioning can be something that brings us together and helps us heal ourselves and the world. We aim to collectively resist overproduction and overconsumption and explore alternative and creative ways to relate to clothing. We want to reduce, reuse & refuse and do this by repairing, rewearing and rebelling.
