Is it just my imagination or is the quality of clothes deteriorating whilst the price is increasing. Years ago one could purchase items of clothing form a certain high street store that were so robust that they seemed to last forever – now the same establishment produces stuff that fades, bobbles and disintegrates rapidly after purchase.
The fabric that clothes are made from also seems to be thinner and a lot of items are almost ‘see-through’.
Do people prefer a rapid turnover of disintegrating clothes these days?
Sadly, even buying more expensive items is not a guarantee of longevity – I bought a lovely jumper ‘for best’ and was horrified to see holes appearing in it and the knitting unraveling…. Grrrrrrr
