15:31 - Summary.
It's truly shameful what has been happening to fashion since the past 15 years it's been going downhill. The stores are filled with rags. Nothing fits, no linings, staticky material, cheap seams, cheap crooked or too large necklines, nothing fits properly for its size on the label and dresses are often too short and hard to find A-line styles or proper pleats. And some things should be banned from public like hideous leggings.
I so agree about the leggings, they don't look good on anyone.
Yes, exactly! Where are the flattering A line styles? Every skirt I see is boxy and ugly.
Store??? We're lucky there's any stores left! Everything's going online! Thankfully, I have a seamstress who tailors my clothing to fit me because, as you said, NOTHING fits correctly!
It started even earlier. My mom told me she noticed a huge dip in quality in the mid 90s. Before, us could wear hand me downs from our cousins. After, handing down garments did not work anymore, they wore out too fast.
I don't want clothing to express my individuality. I want long lasting cloth with a good quality that fit me well and make me look put together.
You can have both
You have chosen your individuality. Practical Classic Comfortable That's how you dress, it fits your personal lifestyle. 😊
You can find a seamstress and order whatever item you want made. A seamstress will help you choose good quality fabric. Obviously it would be more expensive than store garbage, but if you are intent on wearing this item for at least a couple of years, cost per wear isn't that high. Even better if you could sew clothes yourself. But that's a rare skill nowadays.
You should make contact with the women working in historical clothing, like Bernadette Banner and Nicole Rudolf. The stories about women's clothing and corsets are simply untrue. After all, women went riding and even hunting!
This is a very superficial researched video
I am an equestrian, former model and I worked in high fashion as a visual merchandiser, stylist, and trend predictor. When it comes to trending, I get a feeling for something - a fabric, a silhouette, a color - a year or so ahead of when it becomes popular. By the time it hits mass market, I am through with it. Here is what I have to say about your comment: riding side saddle in a fully skirted garment with fitted jacket (until the 20th century when women began wearing pantaloons) is hardly liberated. And you must notice that the clothes worn during sport were never worn as fashion until the cultural revolution(s) that began in the twentieth century and that continue today. Today's clothing companies put forth more collections per year to sell more garments to make more money. Back when I started, there were Spring and Fall collections. Then pre-Fall and Cruise were added, and so on. The public is influenced by these collections thinking that they need to stay on trend, so they buy more. But their clothing budget doesn't grow with their wardrobe expansion needs/desires so the garment manufacturers produce cheaper quality clothing. This results in people buying more clothing that is more affordable but is also of poor quality - so they need to replace it more often 1) to stay on trend and 2) because the cheap stuff they bought looks bad quickly and they're told that it's out of style. So the public ends up spending more money on clothes than they expected. And all that cheap clothing is 1) produced of synthetic fabric 2) made in foreign countries with terrible labor practices 3) the cheap clothes end up in landfills where they pollute. The way to subvert this problem is to style in high quality classics and to update certain pieces (particularly accessories) to update the look or add a touch of whatever trend is whirling about at the moment. And remember, the greatest advancements in fashion are now in technology - particularly in fabrics that stretch, provide sun protection, warmth, etcetera. There are very few silhouettes and trends that are new. But most people don't know enough about this to realize that if they buy quality it will serve them much better and for much longer - than the desperate trending that manufacturers are serving up to you today.
Also, petticoats and huge skirts were a way to woman have their personal space respected.
This is why I started sewing my own clothing. Everything in the stores suddenly looked ugly and boxy, and a classic, A line skirt was nowhere to be found. Fashion is pushed in various directions for the masses and that’s fine, but I’m walking my own road now.
You know, I have been looking into sewing my own clothing because I am so repelled by the clothes they now offer in stores. The current dresses are shapeless, usually made of synthetic fabrics, and quite simply matronly. It is nearly impossible to find a bias cut skirt in a natural fabric without paying hundreds of dollars, Even denim clothes are poorly made and of cheap fabric. Really dreadful clothes.
I call what is available these days as the "Amazon Uniform". Another thing, models don't model anymore.
Sorry To Bother You
I have also started sewing my own clothes since 2020, bc everything started to get ugly and expensive, but i have noticed that the same effect is spreading to fabrics. It is so hard to find good quality fabrics that are not just 100% polyester and that dont cost a fortune for 1 meter. I am starting to think that i will stick to sewing and buying second hand old clothes that still have any quality to them 😭
There are a lot of unfortunate myths surrounding corsetry. Modern corsetry is NOT the same as traditional corsetry from bygone eras. In fact, I wish we had proper support garments today. There are so many useful videos by other youtubers now a days, anyone can learn more about them now. It truly is a fascinating and nuanced topic.
A long time ago I became disillusioned with modern fashion. I always admired the earlier fashions in the 20th century , for example in the 1930s and 40s and 50s . Within those parameters there were many other options to dress, not just in suits and ties. It is possible for a woman to be creative in other ways , being eclectic. So I ignore the fashion trends and make my own with reference points that I discover from the old movies , old photos, old fashion prints etc. I have bought a mix of modern and vintage for over 30 years now and it is my method of ignoring the boredom of modern trends which seem incidentally , as you say, to be continually on repeat cycles.
I can never find anything wearable, quality and interesting either. I would love it if they still made clothing with really unique and interesting detailing but a lot of it is just poorly made copies of whatever 'trends' are being cranked out. If you want something that is not what is being cranked out you can't find anything unless you do resale.
For centuries women wore skirts to make it easier to "relieve" themselves, even without getting undressed. Undergarments were open at the crotch to assist this. This was especially true of women working in fields, as the skirt helped protect their modesty.
Makes so much sense.
Yes, a woman could squat in complete privacy, anywhere, anytime.
@@patduffyforever I'm a woman, and I hate jumpsuits for a reason 😂
I love getting dressed up but unfortunately we are losing 3rd spaces (local public hangouts) in the US, which gives us less reason to dress up. I'm an artist so I'll dress up to sell my jewelry, to perform my music, or to go to a rave or the club, but I'm more outgoing and luckier than most of my childhood friends. Most of my close friends need to adhere to a dress code for work, or they don't have the money to go out. So even if they see beautiful and unique clothing items, they don't get them because they say they don't have a place or reason to wear it. Another thing I've noticed is a confidence issue with some ppl. I've had girls admire my jewelry, but they say they're "not cool enough" to wear it or they say "they need to hit the gym" before they can wear body jewelry. Which honestly makes me sad bc I think their bodies are beautiful how they are. We might have more of a "wellness culture" now but it's still elitist and doesn't really focus on the mind body connection and the fact that no amount of super collagen drink will fix the stresses and structure of our unhealthy society. It also won't fix the fact that our food is the US is mostly poison. To dress well and individualistically, we need to be able to relax in ourselves. And a lot of ppl like to tell us there's something wrong with us, which creates anxiety. And anxiety leads to not expressing yourself. Hence the dull fashion. (Just my opinion)
Tell me about it, I thought it was only something in my country but turns out it's not.
I love the last chapter of what you wrote! You're so right. I've been thinking a lot about why is everybody around me dressing so boring and similarly, where has all the individuality gone? It's very hard to resist for me too, and I feel like it's getting harder and harder to stand out and look elevated & original. I feel the pressure so strongly. You're right it has a lot to do with stress and all the messages around us telling us we are not enough. You have to relax to be creative and dare to show your individuality, yes. Many people are in panic mode and have been for years because of everything that is going on. And it shows. Also it doesn't make it easier that most things you find in shops are ugly and bad quality.
@@JustAGuySlayingDragons what country do you live in?
@herecomesthesun21 💯 and it's sad because you need individual expression to create culture. It seems like culture only exists in artist communities now. But everyone should have culture and individual expression. Not just artists. You don't need to be an artist to be creative and an individual
I have, & never will, understand this deep insecurity in American women. Makes me sad - &, sometimes, lonely. Is is simply to sell things? I think not. This is an individualist patriarchy & women lean toward egalitarian communotarianism. Gather by the modern well. Find your peeps & recreate this ill society@
So true! Clothes shopping is depressing these days. Such ugly clothes!?
Ikr. It made me feel dominated by the government.
Taking about society and fashion, I live now in a small town somewhere in northern Europe and coming originally from a big city in the south, I love expressing myself through clothes but unfortunately people here don't care at all about style. All I see is jeans, sneakers etc. Like, I once went to the cinema with a friend who is a native and she wanted so badly to wear red lipstick like I did but didn't "dare" cause she was too conscious about it 🙁 I still do me as often as I can even if I just go for grocery shopping but I look so separated and this makes me feel lonely. I wish there were more people expressing their uniqueness with style so that I can admire them and exchange inspiration too. Even when we talk about perfumes, they either don't wear any or just vanilla generic celebrity ones. And being a lover of scents, I would love to have a discussion about it and smell something lovely and strange that would make me ask "what is it? 😍" . My eyes are literally deprived of aesthetics, art and creativity . Literally "starved"... 😢
maybe you should travel more..
@@gayatriauty131 I can't afford it
Omg sis SAME 🤯
@@JustAGuySlayingDragons 😩❤
I relate to this so much! I live in a relatively big city in northern Europe, but most people still dress so boring. And it's hard to keep my own style interesting & elevated, because everybody around me is so casual. Yes it feels lonely, and I crave the uplifting feeling that beautiful clothes give.
Actually, peasant women wore stays too and corsets too lol and its a myth that they were uncomfortable.
A lot of women had health issues caused by corsets squeezing their torsos. A fact. 😊
@@heatherfruin5050no they didn’t. Those myths were created by male doctors in the 19th/20th centuries with zero factual evidence. Those doctors had personal biases and didn’t like women. Stays and corsets are amazing protective garments. Not only did they support the breast from the underside thus preventing strain on the ribs, shoulders, and neck but they protected the spine from injury while doing heavy labor. In a pre-claimant controlled world it was necessary to wear several layers to stay safely warm and comfortable. One of the beauties of stays and corsets is that they gave you a place to attach your various skirts. That meant that the weight was safely and evenly distributed and not digging into your skin. Seriously any of the myths around stays and corsets can be debunked in a simple two minute internet search.
True, they were the precursor to the bra, so they were made to be comfortable and provide support.
@@heatherfruin5050 no, you're confusing corsetsetting and tightlacing. Tightlacing was usually done by women of the upper-class to exagerate their body proportions. Corsets were made for support and comfort.
@@heatherfruin5050 wrong
Inaccurate about shorts: young adult American women in 1940's & 50's wore longish, tailored pleated shorts (& looked great & comfortable).
The difference from today is they wore them appropriately, beach, parks, athletic areas, around home.
I remember how long the Kardashians influenced fashion. I’m happy these days are over.
they only wear bodysuits!
the peplum lol
I agree with what you say. I also noticed that when the financial situation bad is , the brands don’t take any risks and produce only basic clothes that are easy to match eith clothes you already have. When the economy gets better, they produce more trendy clothes in bold collors.
There's also the fast-fashion angle. Looser, drop-shouldered clothing involves more straight lines, which are faster to sew.
....corsets and stays were not uncomfortable. I wear stays. Also long dresses are more dramatic and beautiful. Midi dresses suit no one...imho
True
5:37 this is where I am checking out. If you’re going to make a make a video discussing fashion history please don’t perpetuate lies. Repeating lies about women’s fashion history is a great disservice to women. It creates a gross over simplification of human history and creates toxic stereotypes based on lies.
This video was interesting but didn’t address why you think everything at the shops is ugly.
Interesting video and a good attempt at analyzing from a historical point of view why today’s clothes are generally homogenized and cheaper quality. However I must point out a couple of things that I find are not entirely correct or misleading. First is your use of the term Haute Couture equal to “high fashion”. Haute couture is not the same as high fashion. While Haute Couture is obviously high fashion it does not equal very expensive high end prêt-à-porter clothing. Haute Couture is a totally different endeavor which is all about exclusive, custom-made pieces crafted with meticulous attention to detail, while high fashion prêt-à-porter offers ready-to-wear designs that are more accessible and produced on a larger scale. The second thing I’d like to point out is your take on “feminism” at around 7:30 mark. Compared to what women wore how comfortable were men’s clothing? Were they not as restrictive as women’s clothing and were men not bind to cultural constructs and what was expected of them? I think I would have traded wearing heavy long skirts, bustles, corsets and not having the right to vote instead of having to fight wars in the trenches or build roads or work in a coal mine, but I guess it’s just a matter of perspective who had it better or still does. Regarding the Chinese foot binding In late imperial China, bound feet were considered a status symbol and a mark of feminine beauty practiced among the wealthy elite. Its exact origin of the practice is unknown. However it was the Mothers, grandmothers, or older female relatives to first bound a girl’s feet and not the fathers or grandfathers or older brothers. It was a shared bond between daughters, mothers, and grandmothers. Footbinding was also a prestige symbol, and the popular belief was that it increased fertility because the blood would flow up to the legs, hips, and vaginal areas. The small foot was considered more erotic and symbolized a girl’s willingness to obey, just as it limited the mobility and kept women subordinate to men, and increased the differences between the sexes, seemingly to what we can say for pointy stiletto shoes so coveted by so-called “stylish women” of today that also pay the price with bunions and deformed feet after fifty from wearing high heels trying to be more stylish and seductive willingly, a feature celebrated in tv series such as Sex and the City and every major fashion brand in existence. It was actually a male emperor During the Qing Dynasty the emperor Kangxi (reigned 1661-1722) who banned footbinding in 1662 but withdrew the ban in 1668 because so many Chinese women were still practicing it. You are still very young so please be careful with the “woke feminist” rhetoric when trying to convey your message because you could be misguided and missing the context of how, why and who shares responsibility for how things happen.
Does the fact that mothers bound their daughter's feet make it any less horrible? Everyone seemingly was a willing participant in a society that restricted the movement of women. Yes, it was a status symbol. So what? It was still cruel. And you really can't compare wearing high heels to having bound feet. Anyone who wears high heels can take them off, walk around the house barefoot, etc. But binding the feet (as I am sure you know) deforms your feet for life. Incidentally, my husband is from China and his grandmother had bound feet--the last of a dying breed.
@@susanma4899 the point is that the video is filled with misinformation lol
@@susanma4899 I did not say that because it was mothers and grandmothers binding girls feet made it any less horrible, actually I think it makes it even more horrible in my view. My point was that the way it is suggested in this video it makes it as though it was something dictated by men to subjugate women. My comparison to wearing modern high heel stilettos is to show how culturally depending on the time and social constructs women will pursue very unnatural and uncomfortable ways with the intent of being more seductive and beautiful, which was the point of having those bound tiny feet in ancient China. Of course it’s not the same by any means, I’m just saying that we should be careful portraying certain things as instruments to say that women have always been oppressed and are always victims. From what I read it was surprising for me to discover that it was mothers and grandmothers the ones to first do this to their daughters and not something imposed to women in general by some kind of misogynist ruling. I hope I made my point clearer now.
I don't think she attributed responsibility for the oppression or blamed men, she just stated the facts. At least, that's what I've heard. Movement restriction is a symbol of status. It may be elevated status (you don't have to work so you can restrict your movements) or subjugated status (you aren't free to move, you're dependent). That's a simple fact.
Corsets being unconfortable is a myth
It was perpetuated by men too. They wanted to make fun of women and deem them as weaker because of it.
There are several historical errors in this video. May I suggest the podcast "Dressed" (the history of fashion) for well researched facts. Additionally the KZhead channel "Ultimate Fashion History".
Thank you for posting, I really enjoyed this video that I watched twice. Same experience, I couldn't find the clothes I like (I like nice and well made clothes) in shops selling new clothes. Fortunately I've discovered vintage clothes especially the german brand Escada by Margaretha ley. As a stay at home mom in a small town, I rarely have occasion to wear unique "dress up" clothes, so I wear them in my daily life instead of saving them. Like you said, now we have more freedom of wearing what we like. It's nice to see in our local supermarket people are wearing all sorts of clothes and styles, bathrobe, onesie, well cut dress, joggers, suits etc.
i don't remember when was the last time i bought something from high street fashion. I go vintage, charity shop and then I recreate or accessorize it. If what I create does not look good at least I did not spend 50 quid on skirt that might go out of trend in few months.
One of the countless reasons I started sewing my own garments and tweaking the last few storebought ones and boy do I love not having to compromise anything
Have you ever worn and worked in a corset & petticoat? I have and I would rather wear 16th century English style clothing then wear anything from H&M!
I disagree, I am an older woman and now there are so many options available . Thise who fall into trends and have the desire to be In the trend have no idea about fashion , they just need to learn.
I snagged two GREAT pieces at a thrift store.... things that cannot be found in stores these days. The two tops had this in common: they are structured, meaning they have darts which give shape, they come high under the arm to flatter the figure, they are lined, and they have a zipper. The garmet is designed and cut to FIT. I am SO SICK of clothes that have no shape. The arm holes are way too big, and the fabric is cheap. I hope I live long enough to see a return to decent quality.
I live in NZ and let's say it's not exactly at the fashion frontiers. It's a different lifestyle from what I got used to in Europe. All my fansy designer clothes that I brought with me looked ridiculous and out of place here. People walk barefoot here all year around (it was a cultural shock to start with:) cause the beach is always close by. Plus the remoteness, the size of the country and the life style all play a big park. It's been a process for me to rethink my wardrobe, but I like it now. There are a lot of comfortable things in it, but it still reflects me as a person and my values. still the quality of clothes here is appalling 😢😢😢
Thank you for your thoughts and insights, it was interesting.
it needed to be said... and she said it. 1000% agree. I was looking at pieces from just a few years ago... great basics, done with quality materials and a good design concept.... fast forward a few years later... and it looks like stuff designed by your old high school art teacher,...who gave it to her dog to use it as dog-toy before hanging it in the stores... so so sad... what happened?????
TikTok and their obsession with looking like Y2K teens (except not really making the mark, and with far cheaper quality, and less aesthetically-pleasing pieces for women). I haven’t shopped in a couple years because I can’t find any shirt that isn’t cropped or anything else for that matter that isn’t super revealing, and doesn’t look like something a 12 year old would want to wear. Very frustrating!!
This was fascinating! Thank you ❤
Thanks for posting
I've been into fashion for about a year. I saw and read some interviews with Maria Grazia Chiuri / Dior. And I also looked at their collections and bought something from them. She says a lot of what you say here too. I can see the connection to haute coature in a pair of trousers that I recently bought (from the current collection inspired by Marlene Dietrich), as well as a more complex model at a haute coature fashion show. And yes, it is a mix of the past, streetwear and haute coature combined with what customers currently need and will wear. They also want to sell it and do it for customers. For example Dior, Maria Grazia's team has to make 7 collections a year including 2 Haute Coature. That's an enormous pressure.
This is a simply brilliant video that offers a deep perspective about the nature of fashion and the how and why of how it is so.
A wonderful video ..This is so interesting and answered a lot of questions for me especially as I see poor quality materials compared to a few years ago and don't get me started on knitwear/and basic pieces that fit the neckline and i'm sure the trend of tucking jumpers came from the fact that they don't have proper ribbed hems ! its hard to find clothes that sit well on the body and look reasonable for everyday wear ..Thankyou for explaining it all
I wear both bohom amd western wear with classics like blazers ala Ralph Lauren to look unique where I live NO ONE here dresses like me....fine with me I love beinng distinct.
In the bulk of countries and times women have not historically had to wear uncomfortable clothes at all. Extreme fashions during a short period of recent Western history is an incident, not something that measures a timeline of emanicipation
Very interesting topic ❤
There is no new fashion (not my quote). Standing out, apart from special events, is frowned upon. “Quiet” prevails. “Loud” reveals lack of sophistication and disregard for the state of others in despair. Same sentiment exists in the world of fine art now, with “muted” and dare I repeat “quiet” themes. (Not my opinions) Therefore, we are stuck here.
It's horrible
Очень интересная тема, к ней невозможно быть равнодушным. Ваш взгляд, и анализ помогает кое в чем разобраться. Спасибо за глубокий подход, все выглядит потрясающе! Успехов!
I only buy second hand and vintage. Even shoes and underwear can be found deadstock
I learned to sew during the covid lock downs initially as a way to tailor and repair some of my work clothes. For awhile now I've noticed that the quality of clothing in stores has gone downhill. Weird unwearable colors, strange shapes, scratchy fabrics, etc. Remember the cool tailored blouses and blazers of just 10 yrs ago? We have lost so many great retailers to bankruptcy - Lord & Taylor, Mexx, Jacob, Loft. I think what we are seeing in stores today could be a reflection of the overall global economy. Not great. So Im now making my own clothes - linen pants and fitted dresses. Satin bias cut skirts and even collared blouses. Making your own clothes is easier than you think and once you start you won't go back.
I have three 100% cashmere sweaters from Macys, cotton slacks from Walmart, corduroy pants from Kohls and Target. Not expensive. And plenty of cotton knit long sleeve and 3/4 length sleeve lightweight tops. No need for me to change.
I also started to look into trends after becoming disillusioned with fashion and not wanting to be groomed into commonplace trends and look like a clone. Fashion is far more deliberately manufactured than we realise, it’s the ultimate mind control device. It can start with drip feeding styles into films, get celebs to wear them, feature them into media, alert clothing brands ahead of time and then fill the shops with them. This also refers to colours. The political situation is also examined. For example the push for unisex clothing, modest wear and comfy clothes suits the push towards androgyny, Islam. Paradoxically, the push towards every increasing immodest and sexual clothes suits the desire for breaking down sexual restraint and tradition. Just look at the trend for tight leggings on women which shows every contour of front and bottom (ass) shape or mini skirts even on oversized bodies. Then. There’s the trend toward big and fat disguised under the *acceptance* label or new normal. No this is unhealthy! Fashion and media will however normalise this state. In all fashion is used to mind control, push constant spending, keep you in constant aspiration and degrade the human spirit for beauty and self respect.
amazing WORK u done...BRAVO POLINA
Sehr interessant! Herzlichen Dank!
My two requirements: It must be both modest & feminine.
Very interesting, thanks
Ukh thank you for finally saying something about this horror show!
I still like Ralph Lauren its wearable and at many price points but it is very American and works for me here. I found some very well made cool fashion in Italy and france in small shops. Also shop at high quality vintage or secondhand shops you can find some cool stuff - but find your personal style first.
I watch the runway shows and then duplicate the looks with clothes from large online retailers. They are the only sellers who offer something for everyone. I just can't find what I'm looking for in local stores.
clothing has always reflected society norms. my have we fallen.
no its not. someone up there wants to low grade fashion and make everyone look boring and the same
You are right. There is a class of people on the pyramid who have been planning the demise of creative fashion, modesty and femininity, not excluding men's fashion, to give populations decadent clothing in line with decadent morals and society breakdown. They equally want to create two classes of people easily recognisable: the poor and exploitable in shoddy clothing, and the dominant in rich apparels.
Totally agree
Definitely!
I’m glad others are seeing what is going on.
It happens to me too (I am currently living in Sassari, Sadegna, Italy)
Bellissimo posto! Saluti dal Ticino
Love this video❤ learned so much . Thank You
Yep very ugly clothes in shops these days
Zara especially horrifically toxic - the Fall Campaign was downright evil, disrespectful and extremely sadistic.
Proud to say I never purchased anything at Zara.
The same thing is happening with art and cinematography
Planned annihilation of beauty, perfection, creativeness and virtue.
@@michellemobakeng5938 Exactly.
I agree😀
I don't completely agree with you regarding the source of trends. Even high couture creators follow a "book of trends" (Cahier de tendances in French). Of course, they still have their own creativity but it tends to follow these trends. The question is : who create these "cahiers de tendance"? and why?
It’s time to bring back the fashion vibe 2000-2009! Find the designers who reigned during that decade and see if they will mentor. I miss my pointed toe, kitten sling backs that had leather so comfortable I. Plus sleep on them!
I loved 60' s and 70's fashion when I was a teenager and young adult. Textiles, shoes and clothes were made here in Australia now it's inferior crap imported from China. 😢
lol That era was the middle of the road era A lot of dilution
What about bags? It’s definitely a problem, at least in U.S. (New York). Even most of the brand names have nothing to offer except gigantic prices. P. S. Молодец, Полина, хорошую тему подняла.
Everithing is squared, no shape.
❤
Impeccable analysis.
not really
Thank you so much this is a brilliant video and so well researched ❤
Everything is so beige, black or grey or neutral. 🤮 even my husband complained he can’t find anything else and all is ugly. And my husband has zero interest in fashion, but from time to time he likes wearing a colourful top or jumper. And the cuts: I’ll fitted, badly hemmed, awful shapes…. I want to start doing my own tops and trousers. Now the hard bit is to actually find nice fabric.
He can buy the white one and dye it any colour he likes.

YOUR ACCENT
Nowadays if you dare to dress up, you are deemed 'insensitive" as they say "too many people cannot afford to dress well". WRONG! One can get dressed well with clothes they already own, or with inexpensive clothes. It is a matter of wanting to look well dressed, not expensively dresses! One word - lazy! Of course, the advertising of items and trends to the 15-45 population means more sales...
I've been poor af 90% of the time since graduating high school in 2008. It is completely possible to dress well despite this. I only shop at thrift and vintage. Yes, I do have approximately 4 to 5 pieces from Target. But other than this, every item I own is second hand (undergarments don't count lol)
Interesting video, thanks
I do 80 % thrift and second hand.. so many ugly ( fast)fashion
I also shop vintage some and have have found armani, Chanel and other. Gucci handbag from 80s for $100
The average woman didn’t tight lace her corsets, please stop spreading this misinformation about tight corsets.
Это все еще и производится на одних заводах
Living in a village definitely limits the opportunities for dressing up. I live in a city and I have become shameless in overdressing for any occasion. My only problem is the rain. Of course we should dress according to the occasion, time of day and weather but 99,99% of the people don't want to stand out so they dress like basic bitches 100% of the time.
Old Navy...prison clothes.
I live in California. Fashion is baaad. Deutschland ist noch schlimmer!
I’m in California too, and agree with your assessment!
Absolutely agree. Awful fashion and this is why l sew for myself.
Fast fashion is wasteful. High fashion has nothing to do with common society. Too much time has been invested in telling women what they should ware, how they should look, and how their bodies ought to be shaped. Have we evolved at all?
Let me edit… California is workout clothes….no matter the age.
Same, they re mass producing really bad clothes. Have just bought 2nd hand and from China!
Yes everything is sooooo ugly for years now! What gives
That’s why I buy online
Everything is boring and communist looking. No imagination anymore.
So much misinformation. Stop spreading propaganda. You can’t even tightlace stays. The stays and corsets were history’s version of the bra. If you can’t be bothered to do proper research, then don’t speak on historical fashion. Stick to modern fashion.
Clothes and art have always been wealth display. Now there are Landrovers, Lamborghinis, Rolex watches, jet skis and international travel to spend money on. These did not exist two centuries ago. Travel was slow and uncomfortable. Back then you displayed your status with jewellery and fabric, and heavily decorated buildings. The wealth display motive is still there. To look affluent, your clothes have to look newly purchased and you have to have different clothes for different occasions. Wearing the clothes that were obviously purchased years ago, or clothes inappropriate for the occasion, makes you look poor. It is the same as wearing clothes that are worn out or mended.
This video has no valid points and is clearly made by someone who understands neither fashion, nor art
Moderno fashion is a joke
Sorry, sorry but your analysis is bad. 😢😢😢
Could you be more precise? What exactly didn't you like? That could help me improve for next videos

7:13 @bernadettebanner @abbycox enter the chat /beast mode engaged/ also my great grandmother wore corsets every day from before the sinking of the Titanic until like the late sixties early 70s. Internalized misogyny much? You are welcome for the engagement.
She just frustrated an entire fandom 😂.
The Beauty is subjective, simple, minimalism could be elegant, i think your analysis indicate a short way of thinking, and related with society, is the Classic way of thinking before all was better and this is not true at all, all times have good and Bad things, Open your mind, because this video indicates You don't understand nothing about fashion and art
I've never found minimalism to be elegant, mostly generic, whether it be fashion,art or homes, it's passionless, uninspired and boring...but it is good for people that just want to put something out there with little thought or inspiration
