Just to clarify: this video includes various international, multibrand websites, at different price points, with prestigious brands, less-famous brands, sportswear brands, activewear brands, etc. Some websites are on the expensive/luxury side, I personally couldn’t afford all brands in there but, by using the filters (e.g. set maximum price), sorting by ascending price (lowest price first) and spending some time browsing, I find brands and items that fit both my budget and my personal ethics - the price tag alone is not a guarantee for ethical production, which was discussed in previous videos on this channel. Of course, this list is not exhaustive, there are other places to shop: local brands, makers based in your region and single-brand websites are definitely options to consider. Second-hand shopping is an affordable option: here I mentioned 2 that focus on high-end items and do ship internationally, to which you can add local second-hand stores which don’t offer shipping (that depends where in the world you are, so you probably know them better than me ;-)

My outlook on clothing has changed significantly since I started watching your videos. As a uni student I don't have a lot of money to spend on clothes, but I started to realise that I'd regularly buy a lot of cheaper quality, fast fashion clothing that tended to come with quite a high price tag anyway. Over the past few months I've stopped myself from buying clothes and just before I went to Italy this summer I splurged and bought ONE linen dress from an Australian designer Hansen & Gretel. I wore that dress so many days on holiday and have gotten more wear out of it than any of those cheap clothes that sat in my closet. Thank you for educating people on the fashion industry and how to buy good quality clothes. Still on my journey to a capsule wardrobe and loving your videos along the way :)

so true. with the access to information even with limited budget we can buy less but of better quality things that we need and that suit us. My country still is a landfill of used fast fashion sold on almost every corner in second hand shops and 15 years ago I dreamed of having something that I would chose instead of picking leftovers from fast fashion. I still love thrift shopping but now concentrate on sustainability and only if I really need something. Also, brands don't mean a thing unless they concentrate on being ethical.

I would love to do that as well. The not-buying-more-cloths and saving up the money, is easy. What I struggle with is finding some better quality cloths, that I like. Honestly, most of those I see are rather "classy" colors (=boring), or totally crazy. And since there isn't that much to choose from then either, I mostly buy nothing anymore. That is what makes fast fashion so attracktive - you have so many cuts and colors available to choose from, which means that normally every one, no matter the size or type can find some fitting piece. Finding about the same in the more high up fashin is work, partly literaly. Which takes out the fun of shopping. Comclusion: Cloth shopping lost it's fun factor for me, hardly buy any cloths anymore...
@annaandre9131 5 жыл бұрын
These clothes are expensive and most of them are not ethically made. So.... the difference from fast fashion is mainly quality. But few can afford to buy such expensive clothes. I’ve bought from Vestiaire before, it’s second hand so it’s by definition more sustainable, but you cannot return items and ending up paying hundreds of euros for a piece that doesn’t fit, is not a bargain. Anyway, it’s just a thought

Affordable tips: People Tree, Armed Angels, ASOS Marketplace, Vestiaire, Basic Apparel, Organic Basics, SKFK, Dedicated, Nudie Jeans. For the US: Everlane is an option. But my best advice: change your mindset. A nice style is not about wearing new items. Try to find a style that is not sensitive for fleeting fast fashion trends (trends that are only made to make you spend money). Find your style and colors and you will save money by building a wardrobe that looks good on you without the constant inflow of new items. Life is too short and beautiful to spend too much time on shopping and worrying if you follow fleeting trends. Follow yourself! 🤗

Agree. I have found clothes and accessories about with the quality of "designer" for a third to half the price from lesser known, sustainable retailers. Most of the price for designer items is in the brand recognition, not better materials and manufacturing. And many luxury brands burn unsold merchandise because sales hurt exclusivity, which makes claims of "sustainability" laughable. (To be fair, some fast fashion brands also burn merchandise they cannot sell. This is a problem at all levels of the fashion industry!)

I find the more money I spend on clothes the more difficult they are to look after and the less wear I get out of them. (Unless it is more like tailoring) Dry cleaning is very expensive in the UK, I would never buy anything that came in contact with my armpits that is not machine washable unless it was a very special occasion item. Yet I have bought High Street fashion that has lasted and lasted. One of my favourite skirts ever was an early Tesco Supermarket item. And 1980s Next was lovely stuff which washed and washed. This is more important than anything to modern working women and Mums at home alike. I wish more shops would just find fabrics which don’t shrink or fade too badly, sew them together properly and make them suit real women. Fashion is such a con.

Absolutely agree. There was actually an article on the Guardian discussing this topic and the comments were priceless! Even H&M T-shirts were much better quality just 10 years ago.

Attitudes need to change - where there is demand, there will be supply.

I absolutely agree! I live in a tropical country but lived in the UK for a number of years and still own charity shop items from high street brands that have lasted beautifully. I just don't have the time to devote to carefully babying my entire wardrobe - it's too hot to spend hours every day ironing linen that's just going to crease if I look at it too hard. Plus you sweat a lot more here than in a temperate country, so clothing needs to hold up to much more washing. I don't even use a dryer, but washing will take its toll and it doesn't matter how expensive or luxury the piece is. I don't have the budget to dry clean my entire wardrobe on the regular!

"Sane" price is provided by exploitation of people and resources. And by low quality materials. Fast fashion will lose popularity if people count how much money they spent on Zara and how much on those clothes they had to through away less than after a year. They do not last long. They are not ment to last long. I wear sleeping dress (? Idk I barely speak English), that is older than me, and is in a perfect state. It probably cost 10 times more than fast fashion, but it's worth like a 1000 more already. It's basically timeless in style and in quality, and fast fashion is just a waste of money

With all due respect Justine, I don’t think anyone needs fashion advise on 500 pound/euro designer clothes and accessories. It’s simple to buy luxury items without a budget. Even if you had only 40 pieces in your wardrobe like women used to have.. the inflated prices make a quality garment much less accessible for the average women.

Kristen I agree completely. When you have the funds to buy this level of luxury it's super easy, I'm sure everyone here already knows these websites. I would have liked information on other websites like Everlane who deliver quality, ethically produced items at realistic prices. I would suspect that the luxury design houses mentioned by Justine are not producing their range sustainably or ethically. I also think their ranges are not always classic but full of trend driven pieces that most of us in fashion would not wear the following season. I was unusually disappointed with this video from Justine😞

Although not stated explicitly here, the overarching idea is that designer means more ethical, which is a fallacy to say the least. Your designer items quite often are produced in similar sweatshops that Zara and H&M use and feature environmentally unfriendly materials, except a bigger margin is added. I can only accept haute couture being an indicator of fairly paid workers and truly superior quality of garments (setting aside the use of environmentally questionable fabrics). I wish there were actual suggestions on what brands are ethical and at least relatively high quality, without paying a colossal premium for designer items that are not necessarily ethical or truly well-made. My suggestion is, if you are considering (let alone can afford) spending your money on a designer item of clothing, better find a good tailor locally, you are likely to save money, get a good quality item that fits well, choose your own fabrics and not look like a walking billboard with all the YSL and D&G poking out.

Businesses are seldom formed with the consumer in mind, contrary to what they’re meant to do. Fast fashion typically means low price, low quality, and easily replaceable. This allows businesses to constantly churn out new clothes for consumers who are actually willing to spend more because of its cheap price point. Even though fast fashion is way cheaper, fast fashion brands are still able to generate high profits, which is the reason why H&M is able to have a revenue even higher than high fashion brands like Chanel. That being said though, I believe there are still fast fashion brands that pay more attention to the quality of clothes that they produce. It pays a lot to be conscious of what you buy as well, through checking the quality of an item before you purchase it.

If I had the money to buy even reduced price designer clothes I think I would rather find myself a dressmaker who could create my own style pieces for me that fitted me perfectly. Well fitting clothes just look so much more expensive anyway and you can literally create a capsule wardrobe so that would be my aim if I was going to spend big money. I'm an odd shape and I tend to have to alter most items that I buy anyway.

I have to echo the same as others. You seem out of touch as to what is affordable for most people to be honest. I’m a music teacher and earn a decent salary and I have no children but even I would not spend this kind of money. If I had children, even less so. Please don’t tell me to use the price filter . I already checked and that kind of price for a basic top is a bit ridiculous. I need a few tops on the go so when one is in the wash I have another to wear for example. I can’t afford to spend that much on a basic piece. I usually buy an expensive coat every few years that will last the vicious and long unrelenting UK winters (around £200) this is the most expensive item I buy but it stands the test of time. And that for me is a lot of money and the furthest I’d go. Because I know it’s a long term item and because it’s a daily necessity. Other than that, particularly for basics I do not spend much money, because I can’t afford to do so. I have to budget. I also am not of the belief that designer items are necessarily higher quality or more ethical. I usually love your videos but not this time. Just being completely honest.

Helping poor people buy nice stuff isn't what her channel is about, at least not right now, and certainly not in this particular video. Did you read her video title? "Mid range to luxury!" Not "thrifty to nifty." It's not a crime that she loves designers who make beautiful clothes. I'm sure she's learning a lot as she makes each video and reads the comments but goodness, there's no need to crucify her because you can't afford the clothes. This isn't the channel/video for you.

Unfortunately, I have to echo what other commenters have already expressed. Your content usually feels accessible for all women, but this video felt out-of-touch. The price points on these websites cause me to question the things you’ve shared with us about your personal educational and vocational pursuits. The narrative of changing careers and going back to school is a bit different when you live in a world where these prices are affordable. I’m 32 and was born into poverty. I’m presently a grad student and make less than 20k a year (typical for graduate academic jobs). I’m also really into sustainability and supporting practices that have the environment in mind. Most people (at least here in the states-of which NYC is not an accurate representation) will never be able to shop at these websites. Most working class folks buy into the narrative that sustainability is for “rich people” and I can I understand how they come to believe this. You are among my favorite KZfaqrs, but this video makes me (and countless others) feel overlooked. I’m disappointed, but I trust that you will redeem yourself. Edit: I also see here in the comments that you’re suggesting that your viewers use the price filter option. This, unfortunately, isn’t a solution. Most working class women will shop in the $10-$50 range with $20-$30 being the average per item. Maybe a few times a year an item will be bought in the $50-$100 range. And maybe once or twice every five-ten years an item will be purchased in the $100-$200 range. This is the financial reality of most people’s lives.

I have a middle- to upper-middle class job, no kids, just my mom and I, but I'm from a developing country in the Caribbean and there's no way I could afford or justify the prices of these items. You're talking $15,000 in my currency for a handbag or a pair of shoes... quite frankly, the only people who could afford to shop like this in these parts would be those into corruption or organised crime/drug lords. I also was expecting this video to reflect accessible sustainable options that yes, might require me to save up a bit but would be high-quality and long-lasting. Really surprised and confused to see the actual content, especially the strange conflation of "designer" and "ethical". And yes, I know Justine makes a disclaimer that she's not guaranteeing that the products on the sites are all ethical, and that we would have to do our own research, but the message is just...muddy. Why not just make a video about brands that have good-quality ethical staples in a decent range of sizes and suggest some sites that carry them?

This comment section was a very frustrating read. Great video Justine. I almost exclusively shop second hand / vintage and I've been "poor" my entire life - she's not forcing you to buy this stuff. There will always be things you can't have in life, that's fine! I understand the frustration (capitalism is evil) but ethical clothing is not cheap for a reason. I feel like this is constantly forgotten. I'm a small business owner, things are more expensive for us. Costs are higher because people are being paid a proper wage. Buying less and/or second hand is the answer if don't have much to spend. Saying you don't want to pay $40 for a (brand new) jumper is basically saying the person who made this doesn't deserve to be paid a fair wage. I can't afford a lot of things and it's a waste of your energy to get annoyed that expensive things exist. P.s. I know a lot of designer clothing is not necessarily quality / ethical.

Thank you for a lovely online shopping recource video, Justine. If I may be so bold, though - and I have no doubt that you know this anyway - the problem is that a particular brand and even price, these days, means very little. Most garments are made by huge contract manufacturers who supply both low and high end - the quality of the workmanship ( or lack thereof) & the workers conditions are exactly the same, regardless of whose label is sewn into it. Gone are the days where a particular mid range price brand (e.g. J Crew ) was synonymous with exceptional quality, longevity of wear, timelessness. And even IF a garment has all of this - we often accidentally rip it, stain it., get bored of it, change body shape..how much money should one expect to pay for a piece of fabric unless money is no object? My only mantra and shopping advise is - would I still pay THIS amount of money for THIS item if it had NO brand label sewn into it? If yes, it means I love it and its money well spent 😀 Thank you again and keep up the great videos.

No Thanks - because your viewers can totally afford all this [insert sarcasm here]... ridiculous brands that charge extra just for the name. Was hoping to see a list made for average consumer not for a wealthy person that doesnt know what to do with their money.... Not useful for regular consumers at all. And even thou you can find cheaper items on these sites - they are mainly targeting expensive brands and not average consumer. They are known for being high end. So even with that explanation still video comes across as if it was made for someone into luxury brands. When I saw Net a Porter as first option you mentioned - I was very surprised that you were suggesting them due to average price tag they carry. Dont look at the fact they offer cheaper products by sorting by price - is their average price point acceptable for average consumer? That will hopefully also answer accessibility of size ranges and etc. Example - they carry small number of sizes for more affordable products because that is not their primary audience. So just because they offer something affordable doesnt mean at all this site is a good place to find affordable items as a whole. Net a Porter's primary audience is not an average consumer. This is why folks are upset - you missed the mark on general audience these sites market to and are known for.

A good take is also to try to look for lists made by bloggers where they recommend their favourite sustainable / smaller brands. If the blog is dedicated to having a more responsible attitude towards fashion they will be rathe trustworthy. Other than that, I find it a good sign when a shop visibly specializes in some kind of clothing, e.g. a few months ago I bought a skirt from a shop that put it in their "about us" section that they focus on making cotton clothing. Also, if the offer is smaller and doesn't change that often you can assume they put more time and effort into making their collection.

I think the main idea is to be consious or mindful about shopping. I can’t afford these, but look for (local) ethical brands that I like but only buy in sale. I think this is just not affordable for many people. With shopping I think it’s not only important that where we shop, but also why? Desire to buy an item is something we all know. I take a few things in consideration : - realising that nothing is going to change after I buy this item. My life stays the same. It’s fun etc for a very short while, but def not a long lasting feeling - Is it a need or a want? - is the fabric something I enjoy wearing? - knowing your style, what colors you are most of the time drawn to, what look you are into the most. (This took me a while...) - is this item easy to combine with the rest of my closet? - is this something that is really me or my fantasy self? Do I buy clothes for say events I never attend anyway or ‘this would be so fun to wear to the beach’ while you live nothing close to the beach or only visit once a year... -waiting. For a couple or days or weeks or longer. - is this something I can keep in my closet for years? Like investment pieces. I specially have this with bags, shoes, jackets etc but also jeans and vests I have been wearing for years - make alterations in items I already have. can I (let it) fix here and there so it fits better, dye it etc. - put some of your clothing on a rack so you can actually see what you have and by being confronted by it everyday you are more likely to wear it more often - and with that being more grateful with what you have - take care of your garments! - thrifting - buying local brands (ethically) instead of designer I know this is somewhat off topic, but by looking at these sustainable brands, I each time come to the same conclusion. At this point in my life I cannot afford it. Only sometimes in sale I find some gems. And that’s fine, you do what you can I also have some item from Zara that have been in my closet for years and still enjoy wearing them. Just to say that I think that consumerism is equally important as to where we shop. And since I at least have more control about the ‘why’ I start there. Thank you for your content Justine, for combining fun and informal videos. They have been helpful to me 🙏🏼

Fast fashion will keep scoring as long as these fair trade or high quality brands sell tshirts for 80 euros. Common that's ridiculous and the quality of name brands many times suck as bad as cheap brands. For cheap brands you, at least, don't spend half of your paycheck on the tag.. I don't care how ethically sourced it was. I am middle class but i wouldn't spend that much on a top..I prefer to shop at Macy's or Nordstrom then. You occasionally find good bargains and good stuff too. You just need to know how to look or hit your local vintage/second hand store. Etsy is a good source too if you don't like to leave your house. Most stuff i buy on etsy is from individual crafters or family owned business... All the boycott to fast fashion brands while not offering reasonable priced items for most people that make a 1000 euros or less is hypocritical. Not attacking Justine particularly but it is just way too naive to think people can simply stop buying from Zara, H&M, Bershka, Stradivarious or so many others if the prices are way more suitable to our budget. I don't really care if it is this or that.. you have to be competitive.. It's sad though, that most people buy everything online. That's why some of my favourite brick and mortar shops closed. Even the one i worked for a while ago. You just can't compete. I mostly shop out and about and can find good quality items at good prices... where as online you can never really tell. Not to mention you help the local business and the quality is much much better.

80 euros for a shirt can be economical if that shirt lasts 800 wears (about 15 years), or 10 cents a wear. But a 10 euro shirt lasts only 50 wears (about 1 year) for 20 cents a wear. Making the 10 euro shirt 2x as expensive.

I think Justine is pointing towards the true mid-range brands that start at close to the hundred, not necessarily the luxury brands. Nordstrom carries them, too. Not considering ethics, most mid-range brands have decent quality (except for a few brands that are a hit and miss). True mid-range brands still follow seasons, so they're not masquerading as higher-priced fast fashion. From my own experience (both owning and trying on), the difference between luxury, contemporary and mid-range is the fabric quality. Let me explain, I tried on a $2k coat made with Italian virgin wool. This wool is ultra-light, soft and flatters my body. Compare to a $1k coat made with Italian wool majority/cashmere blend. This fabric is still light, soft and tapers nicely to my body. Now compare to a $300 coat made with wool. This wool is heavy, very heavy, but still soft and cut nicely. It's not as warm as the $1k, $2k coat. Now compare to a $200 coat made with a wool majority blend. This wool is heavy, slightly scratchy and not as warm. See where I'm getting at? The price and quality ratio depends on your lifestyle, budget and the clothing type, so there are a lot of options out there.

I think most of us understand how to sort items by price as we don't have the luxury of having hundreds of dollars to spend on single pieces for our wardrobe, so I feel that that 'tip' may not be as useful as you think. Unfortunately, ethical shopping and sustainable fashion are concerns for the entire population, and I believe this video only represents those with significant amounts of disposable income/older groups with very comfortable incomes. I am actually shocked at the lack of options for people with lower incomes who, by the way, also shop online.

Since it's a smaller business, the price reflects that. It's become one of my favourite ways of purchasing items.

I'm so thankful I can make my own clothes. I can't afford these clothes, and I have a professional salary. I'd rather put 4,000 in my retirement plan than spend it on a coat. Doing a minimalist wardrobe saves money as well. Interesting video, but not my cup of tea. :) On fast fashion, I once left my favorite cashmere cardigan on a plane (and nobody turned it in). :( When I arrived in L.A., I ordered a "fast fashion" gray polyester knit cardigan off Amazon, I figured I would use it for the duration of the trip, but I still have it and wear it! The key to fast fashion is not to launder it in a washing machine LOL. I think a sweater like this would fall apart in a washer and certainly would not withstand the heat of a dryer. I hand wash it with a few drops of liquid dish soap, and block it flat to dry. I've had it for six years. Does it look like cashmere? No. Does it feel like cashmere? No. Does it work for a movie, a walk in the park, or doing the marketing? Yep. And it's a classic heather gray. I've worn it in the evenings as well with an LBD. I guess I'll just keep it until I either leave it on a plane or it falls apart.

I'm sorry, but this comes across as clueless to me. Like even the things she says are not luxury brands have insane prices like literally no item under £100. It's all well and good to encourage people to not buy fast fashion, but if I have to spend £1000 to buy a complete outfit anywhere else, then pass. I've got tops I got from Topshop and H&M etc that I've had for years.

So much negativity in the comments! Before fast fashion, we used to spend a higher % of our income on clothing that cost more to produce but it was better made. We had smaller closets, and we didn't throw clothes away after one season. Justine, I really appreciated this video, since I want to buy better quality, and I have no idea what that even means! There aren't any designer boutiques in my town, so I can't exactly go browsing in the stores for ideas. Looking at many of the designer pieces on the websites you shared, I see a huge step up in design details and cuts, and that gives me something to aspire to and look for! (Not all of the pieces looked to be quality of course - I was personally shocked to see an expensive mohair sweater blended with acrylic for example.) Maybe the title of the video was misleading, should have been more along the lines of "where to buy designer clothes online".

Because like me a lot of us don’t have much of a choice but fast fashion or thrifting (if you live in a bigger city or metropolitan area you really should take advantage of thrifting we have better items and more selection than those in other areas) BUT caring for your clothing can make the difference in how it wears and lasts. I have fast fashion basics pieces like dresses, tops, skirts I wear very often but I am careful in how I wash them and I do not put a lot of my clothing and underwear in the dryer. I hang up things in my bathroom or hang or lay down outside to dry because its summer. I take a minute to hand wash tights and bras I have bought from fast fashion places as well to keep them from unraveling, pilling, getting “linty” etc. It only take a few minutes. I have been able to keep things like Forever 21 fishnets good for years instead of wearing a few times and throwing away. It makes the difference to make a top or dress from Target or Forever 21 still look good after 5+ years. I find my clothing really doesn’t wear out I just get tired of the style after a few years or can’t fit it anymore. Doing some small mending if a seam needs strengthening or a button needs to go back on something can extend the wear. Maybe you should make some videos on that for those who are stuck with fast fashion clothing but don’t wish to buy more. 🖤

I was surprised to see how some people were so offended or taken back by this video. I agree that these clothes are not comparable to clearance prices at Walmart, Old navy, Jcpenney etc., however we are talking about higher quality clothing produced ethically. Everyone needs to receive a fair wage in the chain. That means you are going to have to pay more to receive a fair product. How many times have you purchased a cheap product to have it wear out or break quickly? Its frustrating. Then you spend even more to replace the garbage you bought. We must look at it as an investment. Dying your hair with highlights can cost over $100, taking your family out to dinner can cost $70+. These things are often repeated monthly. When you spend $100 on a well made garment, you can wear it for 5 years or more with no further investment. I dont have alot of money myself but when I spend my money I choose quality items that will last.
@woofiedog7452 5 жыл бұрын
Some of these websites selling high end elite designer brands are clearly not for the working person on an average income. But I also believe that we've become so used to treating clothing like food shopping - chucking it all into one basket and buying items frequently and discarding them after a few wears (mainly because they look horribly out of shape or fashions have moved on at lightening speeds) - that when we do see sensibly priced, classical good quality items that are sustainable, made of good quality fabrics and properly made, we still freak out and claim they are too expensive. When I was a young girl in the 1970s and 1980s, I saved up for good quality clothes and only bought them twice a year on what I used to call a spending spree. I was, by no means, rich or even close to it. Even back then I would pay about £40 for a jumper, nearly £100 for a suit. I bought a tiny Gucci handback in Venice for £80 and still have it today. Today the equivalent would be £90 for a jumper and £2-300 for a suit. Yet a lot of good quality clothing that is still sustainable costs no more at today's prices than I paid back then, yet there are still gasps of horror when other shoppers clearly expect these good quality items to be sold at ridiculously low prices more typical of high street tat fast fashion. This is really the kind of mindset adjustment we need to get cultivate - pay more and buy fewer items. We just need to change out perception of what is normal (or should be normal).

They are excessively expensive and very extravagant. I get the whole quality over quantity thing but surely there are a few stepping stones between Zara, H&M, Top Sop et al and Net-a-Porter and MyTheresa? Even Vestiaire can be very costly for what is still essentially in our global age, still chain store items, even if it is Chanel or Gucci or whatever. I won’t ask your opinion on Australian retailers because you probably don’t know them ( and I think we have some awesome ones) but I would be interested to know your thoughts on Maje, Sandro, Comptoir Des Cotonniers, Sézanne etc. Do you consider these fast fashion?
