FPFW

Back in October of 2015, I wrote a post about trying to consume less clothes. You can read it HERE. I conducted a small experiment on my self and the results were kinda obvious actually. I can get buy with just those items on that list AND even muster up a date-night worthy outfit.


from here on known as FPFW.

What's that?
The idea is to (buy) make only 5 pieces per season to add into your basic wardrobe. There is only two seasons in fashion (if we do not count the pre-season collections) it sums up to 10 items a year. (Or you know 20 if that sounds better)

Why?
Not to waist time making clothes you will possibly never wear. This should also give you the opportunity to buy more expensive/higher quality fabrics and notions. You will also have more time to concentrate on a piece and get the fit and handy work quality perfect. 

Rules of FPFW:

  1. Fabric and quality is more important than quantity.
  2. Basics don't count.
  3. Accessories don't count, unless they are pricier than usual.
  4. Socks and underthings don't count.
  5. SHOES DO COUNT!
