Furthermore, there’s something gratifying about being able to buy an item off the rack and know that no other steps are involved. Not to mention, there are some items that don’t fair as well through the tailoring process like jeans and jersey/knit materials. It’s a cost that “regular” size individuals do not have incur every time they shop. One could make the argument that I could just get sustainable clothing pieces tailored, but that results in an extra cost on top of an already more expensive purchase. I hate to admit it but often times fast fashion brands like ASOS and Topshop do they best job catering to my size.

For example, while Reformation carries some options the number of styles they offer in petite sizes tends to vary from season to season. Many times the sustainable options are not offered in petite sizes. However, at the same time I know it can be difficult to consume sustainably 100% of the time whether it’s for price or size reasons. Having worked in the fashion industry and spent time educating myself on sustainable fashion, I know that fast fashion isn’t great for the planet. What once was touted as a genius business model that minimized risks for retailers is now widely criticized for harming the planet.
