Feminist action at Zara in Madrid
By Jess McCabe | 25 January 2009, 20:56
Check out these great photos of an action by Spanish feminists. They hung these outside a Zara in Madrid, one saying “La belleza está en el exterior” (roughly translating as beauty’s on the outside - of the shop) and “La explotación en el interior” (roughly translating as the exploitation’s on the inside).

Also worth pointing out that the centre of the banners reads: "Who's doing the sewing? Where? For how much?"
