opening this comment section genuinely shocked me. complaining about how this documentary feels all over the place. well yes… and it couldve explained a lot more. but the hate is so forced. many of these comments are so shallow and overlook what the film is actually about, which is exposing a system of exploitation. this documentary showcases how young workers are manipulated, how beauty standards are weaponized, and how a brand profits from exclusion under the disguise of some aesthetic. and this is only scratching the surface.
ive never stepped foot in a brandy melville. i had never been comfortable doing so because the brand has always made it clear who it is NOT for. watching this documentary only confirmed that discomfort. lets take this as a step to reflect on broader issues within the fashion industry, beyond brandy melville, and the way we all consume fashion and media.
