The future of fashion may be mostly digital - here's why - ObjectStyle.com

I remember coming across a beautiful poster, folded and inserted inside a National Geographic magazine. It was titled "Hidden Water," and contained various measurements of how much water it takes to produce different things. The poster said that it requires 2,900 gallons of water to make one pair of blue jeans and estimated the water cost of one cotton t-shirt at 766 gallons. It was my first exposure to "the truth" behind the fashion industry. The second time came when I watched "The True Cost."
