A decade ago, I would have never thought of the fashion industry as one that needs to be regulated. However, considering the adverse impact on the health of the planet and the devastating toll on workers, this is an idea whose time is now.

As a kid in the ‘60’s, I made paper dolls with outfits created from wallpaper samples! I wonder if paper dolls will be the next adult colouring books?

The Guardian had a great article about "how to make your clothes last forever" - I thought the bit about providing a "decoy" yarn ball for moths to feed on was interesting (not sure I want to add bait to my closet....!)

Nemosmom - interesting idea re. The sacrificial yarn ball. I use a similar trick with deer-I grow some of their favorites by the sidewalk so they tend to leave my yard alone. Not sure I’d trust moths though!

Nuancedream - that would be awesome if the current adminstration could make some headway on that front.

I was also intrigued by the Guardian article nemosmom posted - but more for her stance as a "radical keeper". The idea of feeding moths totally freaked me out .

This article about dressing a larger bust is from 2017, but I found it really interesting.

Wish there was more pictures. And from what I’ve heard Harajuki isn’t a thing anymore.

Vogue has a very fun series on YouTube, where famous performers, artists, and celebrities break down their most iconic looks. This episode, with Catherine O'Hara (Schitt's Creek), is one of my favorites! Favorite quote: "I looked like a happy alien... in that place..."

I found this about The Row very interesting. I had no idea it was the #1 brand at Barney’s, nor did i know that they were committed to manufacturing in the US. Sounds like a lot of compromise will be made to keep the brand alive.
