POUR EXPLIQUER CE QUE DEVIENNENT NOS VIEUX VETEMENTS.

Every year, thousands of us across the UK donate our used clothing to charity - many in the belief that it will be given to those in need or sold in High Street charity shops to raise funds. But a new book has revealed that most of what we hand over actually ends up getting shipped abroad - part of a £2.8bn ($4.3bn) second-hand garment trade that spans the globe. We investigate the journey of our cast-offs and begin to follow one set of garments from donation to their eventual destination.

"You don't have to be an economic victim of the Great Recession to know that America's middle class is being squeezed in an unprecedented manner. Not only is the U.S. middle class no longer the world's richest, according to recent research, but millions of families who were once financially secure are now living hand-to-mouth."

French Tourist gives food to Richard Gere

Only one person, French tourist Karine Gombeau, offers Gere a bag of food, without knowing it’s the Golden Globe-winning actor. Gere happily took the bag and thanked the woman.

Actor Richard Gere plays such a convincing homeless man that a kindhearted woman — who had no clue he was really a famous actor worth nearly $100 million — gave him a bag of food on the set of his latest movie in Midtown.

Richard Gere as a homeless man at Grand Central Station while filming for his upcoming movie “Time Out of Mind.”
