How much will you spend?

How do I reconcile the fashion industry's excesses with my concerns about the environment, social justice, simple living, and feminism? Unlike plastics and meat, clothes are not generally considered a 'dirty' product. http://www.utne.com/2003-11-01/TheNewPoliticsofFashion.aspx 'Clothes got artificially cheaper' in 1991, when the Asian financial crisis reduced already-low wages, writes Juliet Schor in Sustainable Planet: Solutions for the 21st Century (Beacon). And when high fashion becomes available at discount stores, the dramatic, if manipulated, value of a $5,000 coat that is now selling for $500 seems affordable. But this fosters a cycle of disposable clothes and gratuitous spending.





It’s just incredible how much fashion models get paid a year just for looking good on ask.com I have found out that supermodels make up to 40 million a year. all they do is just jump into some clothes and walk down a run way or better yet just sit there a get there picture taking in suits that can shoot up to anywhere from $30 to $5,000 maybe even more. Now isn’t that crazy. The fashion industry makes couples of billion dollars without breaking a sweat.





what do you think is not expensive.... How much will you spend on clothing ???? What is your limit if you have one???
