A trend called "[[fast fashion]]" is believed to contribute towards the rise of sweatshops. Fast fashion refers to "rapid reorders and new orders that retailers now exert as they discern sales trends in real time" (Ross, 2015)<ref>{{cite web |last=Ross |first=R. J. S. |date=2015 |title=The high toll of fast fashion |work=Dissent |access-date=September 20, 2017 |url=https://www.dissentmagazine.org/blog/the-true-cost-review-fastfashion-rana-plaza-accord}}{{Dead link|date=June 2018 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=no}}</ref> To keep up with the fast-changing trends and demands within the fashion industry, these fast-fashion brands have to react and arrange production accordingly. To lower production and storage costs, these brands outsource labour to other countries with low production costs which can produce orders in a short time. This may result in workers suffering from long working hours without reasonable payment. A documentary, "[[The True Cost]]" (2015), claims that sweatshops relieve pressure on retailers by passing it to factory owners and, ultimately, workers.
