There are quality fabrics still manufactured but they are not often used in mass production of garments.
Any garment production requires scrap fabric. However a crafts person can repurpose and use those scraps where as a factory will just discard them. Also a huge amount of the waste in fast fashion in over production of products that don't even sell and never get used before going to a landfill.
