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.
"Buying so much clothing, and treating it as if it is disposable, is putting a huge added weight on the environment and is simply unsustainable." ——"OVERDRESSED" by Elizabeth L. Cline. " It is well-written and good book about fast fashion, yes! Mainly about fast fashion. Love the title so much!"

評分談論快消時尚的生産、盈利模式與消費模式,講得都對,但更多的是描述,而非分析。因為拒絕進入問題的本質,所以後50%基本上是車軲轆話來迴說,提齣的解決方案也非常錶層,這就很遺憾瞭。

評分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 2009, Cline decided to take a hard look at why she, like so many other Americans (and Canadians), buys so many clothes.
