Hi Anuparma, 'ethical' fashion should be seen as a process rather than a product: a process that should comply with the minimum 'ethical' standards from the production of the raw material to the sale of the finished article. These standards should take account of the short and long-term effects on both the human and ecologcal condition at every stage.

Sorrty Anuparma, I dont have such a thing although Ive just had a fashion show video edited to allow it to appear on YouTube. I'd be happy to send you a copy of the unedited version.
I focus on the practical application of much higher 'ethical' standards in the 'fashion' industry by creating innovative products which restore some economic balance betwen rich and poor. I can for example create a trade link between the Cincinatti Bengals football team and their supporters and a womens' co-operative in an African village which would advantage both in a truly ethical, sustainable and ecologically sound way. If you would like me to expand on this drop me a line at davidmcgill61@yahoo.co.uk or simply leave me an e-mail address.
