Fast fashion retailers create garments fast (thus, the term), but often use polyester material instead of quality fabrics to produce their clothes \u2013 making them last only for a short period of time.<\/p>\n<p>Slow fashion challenges that standard by encouraging consumers to buy better-quality items less often and creating sustainable and ethically-made clothing as opposed to what is currently in trend. At\u00a0<em>Mori<\/em>, they continue to redefine slow fashion with every piece of garment they create.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>\u201cTo me, it\u2019s the aftermath that matters.

When I look at my tailors and sewers, I think they\u2019re all great artists.
