The interesting thing about having a mom as a seamstress growing up is that I had a slightly better eye for materials and construction, so I didn’t get drawn in by stores like Forever 21 when they first started popping up. The downside is that I can tell how much basically all brands have slid in the last 20 years. I’ve got a 100% silk tunic from H&M I bought in the early 2000’s that’s still holding up pretty well, meanwhile I can’t find a regular women’s tee shirt that isn’t translucent after two washes.
