Is this a feminist thing? Probably. Also an art thing. Also a let's stop wasting time and money thing. But on a feminist note, let's stop agreeing that the best way for women (in particular) to "express themselves" is by purchasing new wardrobe items and putting together daily outfits.

what a great project! As much as I love fashion, I have often wondered how much it is a trap set out by economy making us buy so many new items and give old ones which are still perfectly useable away. On the feminist note, well, that it's overwhelmingly seen as women's interest speaks for it self.
I find it rather hard to defend fashion on a theoretical level, personally I just see it as one of my vices in which I indulge...
