The clothes we wear tell a story about who we are, but how often do we pause to think about the stories behind our clothes?

We'd like you to map your outfit and share the results with us by following these three steps:

1. Take a snap modelling your outfit, or for the camera shy just hang it up or lay it out.

2. Check the labels of your outfit for where they were made.

3. Break it down for us, eg jeans from China, shirt from Spain, jumper from Bangladesh. We're particularly interested in seeing labels from Bangladesh.

Here's an example:
