Given that fashion is based on buying things, is it the best means to address climate change?
I understand that fashion is about consumerism but I would even defend it and say that consumerism is about the consumption of crap. If you do buy something, please try to buy less and try to buy something that either you think you really need or that you can keep on wearing. I say there is status in holes, especially as you patch them, because it means that you’ve chosen something and you really like it and you think it suits you and it’s part of your personality. I think that’s what things should be about, not everybody looking like everybody else. Not buying all these landfill clothes that are made by people on less than $1 a day. There’s this wonderful choice of clothes that I offer and maybe you would like to buy something, but choose well. Don’t keep buying all this crap and don’t buy my stuff if you don’t want to. I think the age in which we live, the only possible growth might be in quality of one sort or another – especially quality of life, where you get off the consumer trea
