根据下面资料,回答题
In the 2006 film version of The Devil Wears Prada, Miranda Priestly, played byMeryl Streep, scolds her unattractive assistant for imagining that high fashion doesn'taffect her. Priestly explains how the deep blue color of the assistant's sweaterdescended over the years from fashion shows to department stores and to the bargainbin in which the poor girl doubtless found her garment.
This top-down conception of the fashion business couldn't be more out of dateor at odds with the feverish world described in Overdressed, Elizabeth Cline'sthree-year indictment of "fast fashion". In the last decade or so, advances intechnology have allowed mass-market labels such as Zara, H&M, and Uniqlo to reactto trends more quickly and anticipate demand more precisely. Quicker tumaroundsmean less wasted inventory, more frequent releases, and more profit. These labelsencourage style-conscious consumers to see clothes as disposable - meant to last onlya wash or two, although they don't advertise that - and to renew their wardrobe everyfew weeks. By offering on-trend items at dirt-cheap prices, Cline argues, these brandshave hijacked fashion cycles, shaking an industry long accustomed to a seasonal pace.
The victims of this revolution, of course, are not limited to designers. For H &Mto offer a $5.95 knit miniskirt in all its 2,300-plus stores around the world, it must relyon low-wage overseas labor, order in volumes that strain natural resources, and usemassive amounts of harmful chemicals.
Overdressed is the fashion world's answer to consumer-activist bestsellers likeMichael Pollan's The Omnivore's Dilemma. "Mass-produced clothing, like fast food,fills a hunger and need, yet is non-durable and wasteful," Cline argues. Americans,she finds, buy roughly 20 billion garments a year - about 64 items per person - andno matter how much they give away, this excess leads to waste.
Towards the end of Overdressed, Cline introduced her ideal, a Brooklyn womannamed Sarah Kate Beaumont, who since 2008 has made all of her own clothes - andbeautifully. But as Cline is the first to note, it took Beaumont decades to perfect hercraft; her example can't be knocked off.
Though several fast-fashion companies have made efforts to curb their impact onlabor and the environment - including H &M, with its green Conscious Collection
line - Cline believes lasting change can only be effected by the customer. She exhibitsthe idealism common to many advocates of sustainability, be it in food or in energy.Vanity is a constant; people will only start shopping more sustainably when they can'tafford not to.

C.poor bargaining skill.
