Work together with a classmate.
You are going shopping for clothes! Not in an actual shop, but in an online clothes shop.
First, choose an English online clothes shop.
Examples are: &Other stories, Asos and Nobody’s Child. You can also choose a different online store, if you like.
Second, have a look at the page ‘About us’ (or something similar). Shops will often discuss how they feel about fashion and it’s role in the environment. You’ll need this information for one of the questions.
Next:
Choose a piece of clothing.
Ask a classmate for their opinion on that piece of clothing.
Talk about the price of the clothing. Do you both think the item is worth the price?
Why / Why not?
Talk about the online store itself. Do you think this shop cares about sustainability (duurzaamheid) and the environment?
Why / Why not?
Finally, give your opinion on the shop. Would you like to shop here? Why / Why not?
