< p > "fast fashion", as a "a target=" _blank "href=" http://www.91se91.com/ "clothing" /a "category, attracted many young consumers by its design fashion, rapid market response, many styles and relatively low price, and the market share has gradually expanded.

But because of the different quality control of manufacturers, "fast fashion" clothing has repeatedly burst out of quality problems.

To help consumers understand the true quality of "fast fashion" clothing products, the staff of the China Consumers Association recently purchased 70 "fast fashion" adult clothes in the Beijing and Shanghai market as a general consumer for comparative tests.

Yesterday, the reporter learned from China Consumers Association that, after testing by professional organizations, only 45 garments were found to be in line with the standard. GUESS, Semir, ZARA, GB and other well-known brands of clothing were tested for quality problems, while individual a target= "_blank" href= "http://www.91se91.com/" > brand clothing "/a" existed formaldehyde content and pH value exceeding the standard, which posed a hidden danger to consumers' health.

For this reason, experts in the a target= "_blank" href= "http://www.91se91.com/" > textile > /a > Fiber Inspection Institute remind consumers that after buying new clothes, they should be cleaned and dried after drying in the ventilating place, which can reduce the harmful chemical substances in many clothes.

< p > < strong > "fast fashion" clothing has three major problems: < /strong > /p >

< p > reporters learned in the interview that the 70 "fast fashion" garments purchased by the association of consumers and consumers were commissioned by the China Merchants Federation consumer product quality safety supervision and Inspection Center (Beijing) to test the results. The results showed that the 70 garment qualified rate was less than 70%. Among the tested garments, there were three main problems: the measured fiber content was not consistent with the labeling value, the formaldehyde content or pH value exceeded the standard, and the color fastness was not up to standard.

< /p >

< p > < strong > 1, ingredient brag < /strong > /p >

< p > for consumers, they are often willing to choose clothes with high cotton and wool content.

In the case of rising prices of raw materials such as cotton and wool, brand operators often focus on cost price in order to pursue profits, but do not detect the fiber content of the manufacturer's garments. This makes many "fast fashion" clothes have virtual ingredients.

In this test, WE brand two shirts, URBAN RENEWAL brand two trousers, GB brand casual shorts, Promod brand braids, b+ab brand casual wear, MANGO Brand Jeans 8 products have ingredients "boasting" problem.

< /p >

< p > < strong > two, color fastness is not qualified < /strong > < /p >

< p > except for the false mark < a target= "_blank" href= "http://www.91se91.com/" > clothing < /a > the content affects the comfort degree, because the color fastness is not up to the standard, the garment is the most unqualified product.

In the interview, the reporter learned that clothing's water resistance, acid resistance, alkali sweat stains and dry rubbing fastness are all national mandatory standards.

The color fastness is not qualified, not only directly affects the quality and normal wear of textiles, but also easily washes with other clothes, causing unnecessary losses to consumers.

Color is often the characteristic of "fast fashion" brand. In the process of fabric dyeing, due to the short time, the situation of fading, staining, stitching and dyeing will emerge.

On the top of the list, the "black list" was the most popular clothing, including the GUESS brand of women's woven garments, Semir brand jeans, AT-20's brand men's jeans, SAMUEL&KEVIN's brand men's jeans jacket, MUJI Labo brand pants, URBAN RENEWAL brand women's trousers, MO&CO.DEPAIRS brand jeans, Promod brand's jacket, ZARA brand trousers, women's jeans, brand of American hawk brand, men's trousers, brand casual pants, brand casual shorts, shoes, trousers, masks, and women's trousers. So, in this test, because of color fastness

< p > in all testing items, the inspection items that will bring health risks are consumers' greatest concern. The clothes that detect formaldehyde and pH exceeding the standard are all well-known brands of "fast fashion" category.

The MARKS&SPENCER Marsha branded trousers produced by Marsha Commerce (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. were found to be unqualified for formaldehyde content; the HOTWIND brand produced by the ZARA brand and the hot wind Investment Limited produced by SA Commercial Co., Ltd. both failed to meet the pH value.

Yesterday, in the afternoon, the reporter came to the Semir store in Taitung pedestrian street, and found that the shop sells the most popular jeans. There are eight or nine kinds of men's jeans. The women's money is placed on several counters. The price of the jeans is mostly between 199 and 299 yuan. In the process of interview, there are many young consumers coming to buy.

The salesperson in the shop told reporters that recently there were many jeans playing thirty percent off, and there was no discount for the new ones.

The reporter found that every Semir jeans had a product description about fading.

< /p >

< p > when a reporter asked about the fading of Semir jeans, the salesperson in the shop said with a face that it was not a thing at all.

"General jeans will fade and our goods are no exception. This is a normal phenomenon, not a quality problem.

If the jeans fade seriously, you can use salt to soak in the wash and turn the jeans into the air when they are drying.

The salesperson taught the reporters the knack.

< /p >

< p > < strong > brand reaction is different. < /strong > < /p >

< p > compared with physical stores, many "fast fashion" brands pay more attention to the sales of online stores.

Reporters log on to Taobao and found that many "fast fashion" brands have official flagship stores on Taobao, and businesses have launched the "12. 12" campaign.

When the reporter asked the customer service staff authorized by MARKS&SPENCER to the quality of the brand clothing, the customer service personnel said that most of their products were imported from the countries in Southeast Asia, and they supported the counter checking, and the quality was no problem.

When the reporter talked about the specific quality problems, the network customer service staff just blurred this problem. The headquarters of the MARKS&SPENCER company will deal with it externally. At present, there is no relevant information on the shop, and customers have not responded to such information after purchasing the goods, so the reporter can buy it at ease.

{page_break} < /p >

< p > in the list of the unqualified products, the most famous brand is ZARA. When the reporter goes to the brand website, he finds that the clothing of the brand is released by the weekly time unit, but it does not see its response to the unqualified products in a prominent position.

When a reporter called the official telephone to inquire about the products on the list, a member of the brand relations department named Chen said that if the consumer bought the product that was unqualified, he could contact the seller to discuss the matter of return, and the quality inspection department of ZARA is still communicating with the China Consumer Association. Once new progress is made, it will be released in time.

< p >, can the report of the China Association for consumer protection serve as a basis for safeguarding the rights of the citizens of the island city? For this reason, the reporter called the 12315 hotline consultation of the Municipal Industrial and commercial bureau.

The hotline service staff said that if consumers have the relevant test data issued by the state authoritative inspection agency, and they have rights protection requirements for the goods they purchase, they can seek protection from producers or sellers.

If consumers are looking for producers to safeguard their rights, they need to complain to local quality supervision departments. If they look for sellers to protect their rights, they can find complaints from the industrial and commercial offices where sellers are located.

"Our law enforcement officers will check the relevant information such as the purchase certificate and so on. If the product is indeed a problem product, the law enforcement officers will help consumers safeguard their rights."

12315 the hotline staff said.

< p > < strong > what is "fast fashion"? < /strong > < /p >

< p > Fast Fashion as a clothing category, with "fast, ruthless and accurate" as the main feature, has led the global fashion trend.

"Fast" means fast fashion a target= "_blank" href= "http://www.91se91.com/" > dress < /a > always follow the trend of the season, new products to shop speed is fast, window display frequency is more than two times a week.

"Ruthless" means fierce competition among brands, and consumers can buy fast fashion clothes at a speed comparable to brand competition. Monthly "moonlight clan" is an ordinary thing.

"Accuracy" means eye sight.

< a target= "_blank" href= "http://www.91se91.com/" > designer < /a > can predict the trend of the near future and design all kinds of fashionable clothes in a short time. When consumers choose goods, they will buy them without hesitation.

< /p >

< p > < strong > quality inspection specialist < /strong > /p >

< p > < strong > new clothes do not open the bag, then wear < /strong > < /p >.

< p > for the habit of wearing new clothes, Ningxia director of Qingdao Textile Fiber Inspection Institute believes that there are many health risks.

Ning director told reporters that the main role of formaldehyde to improve clothing color brightly.

If a manufacturer uses cheap additives containing formaldehyde, it will cause the clothing to release formaldehyde gradually during the wearing and using process, and induce the disease through the contact of the respiratory organs, eyes and the largest organ of the human body - skin.

The reason why the pH value exceeds the standard is that the businessmen are lazy in order to save costs and save the rinsing links in the production process, resulting in many chemical preparations remaining in the clothes.

"PH exceeding the standard of clothing can cause skin balance to be damaged, cause itching, and even appear allergic symptoms. Many people scratch the affected area to cause skin ulceration and then cause infection."

Ning director analysis.

< /p >

< p > in addition to buying clothes with high brand prestige in regular shopping malls to avoid these health risks, Ning director said that through washing and drying two simple methods can also remove harmful substances in clothing.

Formaldehyde is a volatile substance with good water solubility. It can remove most of the formaldehyde in the clothes and reduce its harm to the human body.

Many harmful substances that affect the pH value of clothing can also be removed during washing.

Therefore, in order to ensure safety and health, Ning Director suggested that clothes and trousers should not be worn immediately, but should be washed with water first. This can play a certain role in disinfection.

< /p >

< p > in addition, < a href= "http://www.91se91.com/news/index_f.asp" > new clothes < /a > after cleaning, many harmful chemicals can be reduced, but cleaning may not be completely removed. It takes a long time to volatilize the process.

Therefore, after washing, the clothes should be dried in the ventilated area, so that the formaldehyde and other substances can be fully evaporated.
