How a $2,000 Sweater Exposed Fashion’s Hidden Labor Costs

Content creator Macy Gilliam spent 90 hours over four months and about $2,000 making a sweater from scratch, starting with wool from a sheep at New York City’s Queens County Farm Museum, according to Bloomberg. Gilliam told Christina Ruffini on Bloomberg This Weekend that the project gave her a new appreciation for the labor behind clothing and raised questions about transparency, quality and ethics across fashion’s supply chains.
