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.

用户评价
本书涉及了二十年来快时尚逐渐占领服装市场主流的现象和原因、它与高端时尚的“媾和”、美国人服装消费习惯的变迁、过剩/废弃服饰的回收与处理、未来时尚业回复“慢”的趋势等等，并有作者对中国、孟加拉等第三世界服装加工厂的实地考察记录，适合对消费文化作为一个现象有兴趣的读者。不足之处跟几年前读的Deluxe一书一样，资本社会中的美国人虽然对表层问题的批判意识很强，却无法指出问题的根源存在于资本扩张的本质之中。所以很遗憾，本书作者的解决办法又是回到微观和终端，号召读者花更多的钱买更好的东西、支持本土服装业、自己学会动手修补衣饰，诸如此类。这并非不对，但离题太远。
评分In 1965, 95 percent of the clothes Americans bought were made in America; today, that number is less than 3 percent. Part call to action, part historical text, fashion students will finish with a better understanding of why fast fashion chains are dominating our malls and our closets, why apparel manufacturing is no longer a major U.S. industry and
评分谈论快消时尚的生产、盈利模式与消费模式，讲得都对，但更多的是描述，而非分析。因为拒绝进入问题的本质，所以后50%基本上是车轱辘话来回说，提出的解决方案也非常表层，这就很遗憾了。
