On April 24, 2013, the Rana Plaza collapsed, killing 1,134 garment workers and injuring over 2,500. The tragedy sent shockwaves across the world, exposing the appalling working conditions and safety violations that plague the fashion industry's supply chain.

"Unravelling Fast Fashion And The Collapse Of Rana Plaza" is a powerful and eye-opening account of the disaster that changed the face of fashion forever. Through extensive research, interviews with survivors and industry insiders, and a meticulous analysis of the events leading up to the collapse, the book uncovers the systemic failures and corporate greed that led to this avoidable catastrophe.
