I don't disagree with you that it's bad but I don't think changing the fashion industry is going to solve those problems either. People are selfish and exploitation is in our nature. We will simply invent new ways to steal from and oppress others unless the whole world suddenly decides they don't like money. The people making cheap shirts in Malaysia still need to make a living if we shut down the sweat shops. Unless the root problem is solved they'll just be out of work until Apple or whoever else comes in to exploit the cheap labor market and the cycle starts over again.
