[quote=Anonymous]Y’all I just read an article the other day that stated the average wear days for an article of clothing has declined from something like 180+ to more like 70. This is an actual metric the retail fashion industry tracks. That means in the past every item of clothing was worn for the equivalent of half a year before being discarded whereas now it’s more like one fifth of a year. That’s a huge decline. Which came first, the chicken or the egg? Consumers want on trend, cheap clothes, so quality goes down? Or businesses want to shave costs and customers don’t mind? My hypothesis is that it’s the former - and inversely correlated with insta / Facebook / blogger growth in users. [/quote]
