Thanks for your comments Steven, it is very true that it is often cheaper to buy clothes than make them, particularly with all the cheap online outlets springing up. Why spend time and effort plus the cost of material making a dress when they are available online for $20? The real cost of these mass produced cheap clothes on our environment and the workers that make them is often overlooked. I think it would be great to see a return to locally produced and homemade things but I can’t see it happening with the current demand for cheap and disposable.
