Abstract
This study aims to explore the intricate relationship between mass media and the fashion industry. With the rise of a plethora of media platforms, mass media has permeated every aspect of daily life, including the fashion industry. While mass media has played a significant role in shaping fashion trends, it has also led to a culture of fast fashion, compromising environmental sustainability and worker welfare. Moreover, the focus on unrealistic beauty standards in the media has resulted in body image issues among consumers. To better understand the impact of mass media on fashion, this study is divided into three main sections. The first section provides a brief history of mass media and its influence on fashion. The second section examines the role of mass media in shaping consumer behavior and the rise of fast fashion. Finally, the third section explores the challenges and opportunities for creating a more sustainable and inclusive fashion industry in the age of mass media. By examining the complex dynamics between mass media and fashion, this study contributes to ongoing discussions around the need for a more responsible and equitable fashion industry. It is crucial to gain a deeper understanding of the role of mass media in shaping cultural values, social norms, and environmental practices for creating a sustainable and inclusive fashion industry.
