The True Cost of Fashion? Armani Faces Labor Exploitation Probe Luxury fashion house Armani faces controversy as a court in Milan placed a one-year administration order on Giorgio Armani Operations, a subsidiary accused of using subcontractors who exploited workers. Investigators found workers making Armani products for a fraction of the retail price, reportedly working long hours for meager wages. The company maintains it has measures in place to prevent such abuses, but this case adds to a growing concern about labor conditions in the luxury fashion industry. This news comes after another Italian fashion company, Alviero Martini, faced similar investigations. Italy is a major producer of luxury goods, but it seems ethical production practices may not be keeping pace with its fashion reputation. #FashionEthics #LaborExploitation #LuxuryFashion #SustainableFashion #SupplyChainTransparency #CorporateSocialResponsibility #italy
