All of Ivanka's products are made in foreign factories in countries such as Bangladesh, Indonesia and China, where low-wage laborers have limited ability to advocate for themselves, as @drewharwell and I reported last year:

@drewharwell At the time, Abigail Klem told us she was planning her first trip to tour some of the facilities that make Ivanka Trump products and that the company would increase oversight of the treatment of its largely female workforce. They have provided no details since then.

@drewharwell As Ivanka's image grew more polarized, so did her customer base. Fans embraced her clothes to make a political statement, while other women eschewed the label for the same reason.
