Cleaning out the closet

Imagine all wardrobes being thrown in a hole, just to be dug out in 100 years. What will the content say about us? What do our clothes reflect? That we lived in a standard society of mass production, chain stores, with little appreciation for quality, that the dress code was uniform-like, cheap, quantity over quality and that our way of life is simillar to that of our clothes: standard, average, empty. Not me! It's time to throw out all of the unworthy shit. My goal is to have items I that I will never want to get rid of, shoes that I'll keep for the rest of my life and dresses that my grandchildren would still want to wear.

There's so much in my closet I could never part with, but for all of that stuff...there are the things I may as well put out in the yard I find them so useless! I just want to buy only beautiful vintage things.

i think our time would reflect on fashion based on style rather that comfort plus individual dressing...
