They really are. I'm going to have to try that Lafayette 148, because god knows, I can't find anything nice.

I buy this on-line. I don’t own a ton of clothes but what own is nice and well-made.

Clothing manufacturers love cuts where they don’t have to use a scintilla more fabric than absolutely necessary.


Which is why all the bathing suits bottoms being sold now are “cheeky” despite that cut looking horrendous on almost all women

Big business ruined fashion. Outsourcing production to countries with no workers rights and dwindling quality control, fast fashion, people buying massive wardrobes of ever-cheaper and poorer made clothing (at every price point)… people have talked with their wallets.

Old Navy was one of them. Shipping in flimsy tissue thin tshirts and awful skinny jeans from China.

I know. I'm shopping for simple linen or cotton dresses and everything is rayon, viscose or other horrid material.

The cuts are terrible. I went to Saks to find a pair b/c I thought that higher end brands would be better. They weren't.

I think it’s gotten worse during the pandemic too. Or everyone is working from home! But the stores seem to think we are.

I agree. I saw a list of some magazine...best jeans for everyone...all were awful. Unflattering AND expensive.
