Fast fashion isn't aimed at people in poverty Biggles.
Companies are deliberatly making cheap, fashionable items, which are used a couple of times and thrown away. The customer then goes back and buys a stack of new items a couple of weeks later and they keep repeating the cycle. That is the business model of companies like Primark, Boo Hoo, Pretty Little Thing, etc.
Clothing and accessories shouldn't be a disposable items. They are screwing the workforce and the environment at the same time
