    It depends if you’re popular or not. People might copy your style and purchase the fast fashion directly because of you, even if you got it second hand. Say for example you’re Taylor Swift, and you literally steal the fast fashion cloths directly from the factory to wear in public. You are still indirectly financially enabling child labor and probably boosting the business.
