Comment on Im flyinf to the USA from england
acchariya@lemmy.world 5 weeks agoThe clothes thing is interesting to me as an American living in Europe. I feel like our clothes are shapeless blobs made in china for fast fashion exclusively, while the clothes in Europe and UK seem to be much better in cut a quality. They are certainly more expensive in UK and western Europe though!

Hey thanks for your insight.
Maybe in the UK we’re super used to fast fashion shite like Primark or Asda George. I mean, the designs are cool but the quality rivals that of the Looney Tunes ACME products.
Maybe you’re right though, maybe I’m looking at them through rose tinted specs. I rather like the Old Navy stuff or American Eagle. The material just seems to last a tad longer than the supermarket pish in the UK.

Maybe perception on my end too but I feel like the quality of clothes at the fast fashion level has cratered in the last five years
