I have a better question: Should clothes be so crappy??!
I haven't been to the mall in 2 years. I'm so sick and tired of going to department stores and seeing crappy quality garbage that is tasteless and impersonal.
I pickup old things from thrift stores, not because I want to, but the quality of stuff I get in thrift stores (cashmere sweaters, hand-tailored dress pants that actually look good, nicely made and smartly designed clothes) is far superior than anything bought off the rack in the mall. Such items were made in a bygone era where quality dictatated price, rather than which small handful of power conglomerate corporations have the connections to overseas sweat shops and the marketing budget to enable them to sell clothes made on the penny and sold on the dollar.

Depends on the clothing brand. You just have to know where to spend your money and if clothes are worth the price. Im not sure though, Im still wondering if I should buy a Lacoste polo which on average would cost $70

Expensive clothes cost a lot because people are willing to pay it. Sure, they are slightly better quality and more thought goes into the design, but they are making a huge profit.

Thats discrimination and no person might harm out with that. yet I comprehend the place you're coming from, i'm your comparable length to boot. yet a brilliant style of the time, you're no longer procuring the fabric, you're procuring the style call. It basically would not be precise for better human beings to ought to pay extra, fairly by using fact fee would not have lots to do with the actual clothing. We pay $15 dollars for underclothes sometimes and it extremely is fairly something... Lola and Giselle

It's all about rather or not you enjoy keeping up with fashion and how good the fabric and color appear on you. if you enjoy looking good and looking like the girl in the magazine it's okay to buy some good pricy items , but always compare and see what can be swatched.

Nope but since people continue to spend endless amounts on a label bag or shoes prices won't be decreasing any time soon.

depends on the material and how much detail there is on the clothing but i think that designer clothes is soooo over rated. they make plain old clothes and put a logo on it and sell it to u for a lotttttt more than its worth..................

no. why buy expensive clothes when you can find cheap ones that have the same style as the expensive ones. that way you can afford to keep up with the trends as they come and go.

no that's why 90% of my clothes are from goodwill or were 70% off. :)
Don't hate on goodwill- some of my fav. clothes are from there :)
