>Dr Matthew Walker, a lecturer in the Art History department at the University of Oxford, recently stated he believes the state of modern fashion is in disarray due to the proliferation of cheap clothing
>"Much like we have an obesity problem due to access to cheap, rubbish fast-food, we have a fashion problem with our recent access to a wider array of colour dyes and textiles"
>"What this has resulted in is a large number of designers, who believe the only way to be successful in a competitive clothing market is to out-do each other in terms of garishness and shock value"
>Specifically mentioning fashion designer Rick Owens, Dr Walker stated that "hacks like Owens are further diluting the already water-thin world of fashion with their immodest designs, to appeal only to the lower-class who previously could never dream of affording fashionable clothing, but now have them in reach due to faux designers dragging down the rest of fashion with them"

Hey, maybe he's critical of modern fashion because he can't find anything to wear that doesn't look like shit.

>Overdressed" by Elizabeth Cline
I just looked up the book and it seems interesting. Have you read it or should i not bother?
>>12119992
it's worth a read. it's a mixture of research and analysis, "personal journey," and notes toward the future. she's not the best writer, but her ideas are good and she presents them decently enough.
