Cotton On cotton on to living wages

More huge news for What She Makes!

Cotton On has just announced they are strengthening their commitment to a living wage! Congratulations, Cotton On.

Cotton On has promised to develop a 5-year ‘roadmap’ to achieve living wages for the women who make their clothes — which will include milestones to aim for and a framework to keep track of their progress along the way. This is an amazing achievement.

It’s been a BIG fortnight for all of us who care about What She Makes. Cotton On are the latest brand, following CityChic, Kmart Australia and Target to announce their positive steps towards living wages for the women who make our clothes.

None of this could happen without our amazing community who care about What She Makes. Together, let’s continue to stand up for the women who make our clothes, so they no longer have to live in poverty.
