Fashion doesn't bother me that much. If they're willing to buy, only an idiot wouldn't sell. Anyway it's fast fashion that bothers me the most. Built on constantly changing "style" they get out lines of clothing out even every other week (I've read somewhere), it's built on cheapest materials and work, devastating on nature as well as psyche of buyers.
It is just sad to see people so self-absorbed and brainwashed that they would spend a ton of money on crap. It is mostly out of inferiority complex. A dick-measuring contest. And because of that, the world is a circus. So much superfluity. In 2017 the British brand Burberry destoyed bags, clothes, perfumes.. worth nearly $40 million because it was left unsold and a new line was coming in. I bet many other brands also do it every year.
Yeah that sucks. Are you a gal? Because I'd love some of Prada or Blahnik shoes and bags because they're gorgeous, not to show them off. So prettyyyy.

I see you've been brainwashed by 'Sex & the City'.
Knockoffs do exist!
I know! I don't want a knockoff tho, it's so lame to wear the brand that's visibly not even the brand. Why do people that is beyond me completely. Abibas. Dolce&Gorbatchov. Why even bother?😅
Yeah the fake names make it goofy, but I’m pretty sure unlabeled knockoffs exist as well.
My favorite spotted in China was Suprome 🤣
I don't have the energy to chastise every parent I see that has their kid rocking some $150 pair of shoes but I make my way knowing I have a bright future spending my money wisely.
There was a documentary about jeans sold on 5th Ave in NYC for $700 a pair, that were made for less than $5 by enslaved minors in Guatemala. The US company CEO was a big socialite. Everything has been scrubbed from the internet now.
