I do think this has a lot to do with it. Everything is smocked and drop shouldered and whatever it takes to make it easy on mass manufacturers not to have to tailor anything. So nobody looks fabulous unless you spend a good bit more money (on a cut/style to begin with and then on tailoring) and are a ton more selective. It's just so much work![/quote]

Correct. Everything is baggy and shapeless. Every time I get a compliment on something it's 20 years old. Today I wore a pencil skirt and blouse from Forever 21 circa 2006. When I check out new clothes I never buy anything.[/quote]

I went to Tysons about a month ago with the goal of finding some new clothes for fall. I was excited and super motivated as I've lost like 70 pounds and I love shopping and clothes. I did not find a single thing I wanted to buy. And I spent hours and went just about everywhere. From Nordstrom to Free People, and everywhere in between. Nada. [/quote]
