I wasn't aware of that, so you certainly shed some light on this topic for me. I think countries in Asia (Malaysia especially?) have gotten tired of the West shipping their plastics recycling off to them, which sounds like a similar issue. There's a lot of this sort of thing that needs to be rethought how we deal with it all, because unmitigated consumerism has become an ecological nightmare.
I've never made conscious choices on what fashion to buy based on environmental concerns. What I buy (whether thrifting or at a regular store) is usually about cost and comfort. Fashion trends haven't been an interest in mine, which I recognise now might be at least partly because of autistic sensory concerns.
