书籍简介：

Fast fashion and disposable clothing have become our new norms. We buy ten-dollar shoes from Target that disintegrate within a month and make weekly pilgrimages to Forever 21 and H&M. Elizabeth Cline argues that this rapid cycle of consumption isn't just erasing our sense of style and causing massive harm to the environment and human rights – it's also bad for our souls. Cline documents her own transformation from fast-fashion addict to conscientious shopper. She takes a long look at her overstuffed closet, resoles her cheap imported boots, travels to the world's only living-wage garment factory, and seeks out cutting-edge local and sustainable fashion, all on her journey to find antidotes to out-of-control shopping. Cline looks at the impact here and abroad of America's drastic increase in inexpensive clothing imports, visiting cheap-chic factories in Bangladesh and China and exploring the problems caused by all those castoffs we donate to the Salvation Army. She also shows how consumers can vote with their dollars to grow the sustainable clothing industry, reign in the conventional apparel market, and wear their clothes with pride.

书友短评：

@ 辛辛蔚蔚 Cline did a good job on glossing over the issues that surround fast fashion. It's okay…after thinking about it. It is a great book to begin reading about the fashion industry, but this doesn't delve deep enough. Cline talks over her problems with owning so much clothing that I can't relate. I don't shop impulsively and I don't find it enjoying. @ 西瓜大王 In this revealing and thoughtful look at clothing and consumerism, author Elizabeth Cline sets out to reform how we look at fashion and how we shop for clothing. After purchasing SEVEN pairs of flats from KMart in “We’ve gone from making good use of the clothes we own to buying things we’ll never or barely wear. We are caught in a cycle of consumption and waste that is unsettling at best and unsatisfying at its core.” “It changes the rules of what we’re supposed to wear constantly, and we seem to have lost our sense of self along with changing trends.” @ 西瓜大王 一般……. 只能说跟作者的价值观不太一样吧 很多主观的东西都无法理解 @ 阿离 读起来略平淡，一直在想记者写书好简单啊只要采访几个人就够了结果最后很长的参考资料…但还是很平淡。而且作者美国人应该把被亚拉美（主要是中国）抢走的工作机会夺回来的观点也不能全部认同啊
