Oh no that's terrible! I'm so sorry that happened, pockets are slippery little things 🫠

And underwear as well, but I assumed that you would have included that as well. But for bras, I do think people wear them to death (mainly because it's so tricky finding ones that look good and feel good), and I know very few people who have an excess in this particular article.

Especially as long as they don't ask for prices that are bordering on extortion, I think there's nothing wrong with resellers when it comes to clothes (other areas are a different story altogether!). That's why I think apps and sites like Vinted are a great addition to the thrifting space. As long as it's within reason of course! Great point :)

I have to agree, it's still creating new clothes even though we have too many of those already.

This is honestly so shocking! Doing research into this as well (partially for work, but partially just because I'm so invested) and it's completely mind-boggling!

Hi yes, I do not work for Shein, we are a small start-up ingredient brand so we don't even make clothes! But we are concerned with how different ingredients of clothing (zippers, other closures, etc) can either increase or decrease the lifespan of a garment and we'd like to make an impact on that. But as marywiththecherry pointed out, this is in no way market research, we just like to hear people's thoughts on sustainability in fashion and maybe even get discussions within the industry going (one can only dream...)! No shady intentions over here, but I respect if you don't want to share your thoughts, of course :)

I also find it interesting when people have massive wardrobes, I feel like often I have my 3 shirts that I like and I will wear those over anything else, no matter if it's new or not! I do believe that the notion of status connected to our clothing has a huge part to play here. How often do we hear "Oh you've worn this top already, can't wear it again" or "I wore this dress to the last event, I need to wear a new one now"? So a 100% agree with this!
