Description

In this episode, we explore the B2 Speaking question: “Would you buy from a brand that treats its workers badly?” We look at the recent controversy around Shein’s first physical store opening in Paris — and what it says about fast fashion, ethics, and everyday choices.
You’ll learn five natural chunks you can use to talk about this topic: convenient / affordable / accessible, treats its workers badly, when money’s tight, demanding better conditions, and being held accountable. You’ll also hear my honest take on where we can draw the line between affordability and responsibility.
