Having tackled everything from the NCAA and the Miss America Pageant, to National Security and the wealth gap, viewers of Last Week Tonight With John Oliver know that any topic covered on the show will be completely unpacked and hilariously shitted on in the best way possible. During last night's episode, John Oliver spoke about the fashion industry and the falling prices of trendy clothing thanks to "fast-fashion retailers" like H&M, Zara, and Forever 21.

As always, Oliver presents the positives of the topic, but also takes major stabs at companies for their wack campaigns, use of child labor, and other questionable practices that allow for the production and sale of cheap clothes. Do yourself a favor and watch the quick video above to become an informed shopper.
