how does antiquing work in Star Trek?

like, okay, there's no scarcity Because Replicators. great! except you can't replicate an antique, not the real thing. probably some AMAZING reproductions- 24th-century historical costumers must be having the time of their lives, because as great as modern synthetic baleen is, imagine what you could do with a machine that literally replicates the exact molecular structure of the same! or that extinct flax that made medieval linen so great! -but I know antique collectors. there's nothing like the feeling of something you know so many other people have loved for centuries

is it like a barter system? do you go to the antique "shop" with things passed down in your family or found in the equivalent of a Facebook buy-nothing group, and trade what you have for what the history nerd running the place has based on your respective interests?

is Brimfield like a giant swap meet? could I go with, say...a big bag full of my grandmother's chunky 1950s costume jewelry and trade it for 1880s blouse waists because the stall owner wants the former and I want the latter? equivalent value wouldn't matter- what's value, beyond how much you treasure something? nobody's got rent to make or bills to pay, after all

do people become antiques "dealers" just for the thrill of the hunt and the pleasure of matching an object to someone who will love it? you don't have to work, after all; you can spend your whole life searching the world for rare treasures if that brings you joy

this is a nice thought

#star trek #worldbuilding #oh my god think of the wonderful materials you could have at your disposal to make clothes out of though #with replicators #as much merino and silk-velvet and cashmere as you wanted. aforementioned Good Linen. the lightest #sheerest voile imaginable #forget pajama jumpsuits; their world could gain back some of the sensory textile richness ours has lost #furs- anything you wanted! from any animal! because it's not FROM the animal but it's exactly the same!#it's not 'faux fur' made of plastic- it IS the real thing #hi my name is Marzi and I grew up on TNG but internalized NONE of the aesthetic and got bored in the battle scenes

My fashion sense has been elevated to unknown degrees since i found a community of online vintage sellers in my city

#Ive donated the clothes i dont wear anymore to shelters #Because i love clothing so much pretty much all of my stuff is in pristine condition #And the ones that are rag material are being upcycled by D #The joy of wearing wool cotton mohair silk cashmere and angora #For half the price of fast fashion polyester

I have discovered that the other day when I was playing around with purple glitter gel that said purple glitter gel migrated rather ambitiously onto my favourite blue vintage cashmere jumper. I didn't notice because it's oversized and folds such that it ripples and can't really be seen so I'm not considering calling it quits yet. Rather than use a stain remover (will never ever work with purple glitter gel) I could try embroidering over it if it really bothers me. Calm and tolerant. Calm and tolerant.

#whingeing and whining and moaning #this is my favourite clothing item... it makes me so happy #such a rare find #I have another blue vintage cashmere jumper I got when I was a teenager that I wanted a copy of and instead I found something even better #I'll never understand fast fashion because of this

walked 6ish miles today and words do not describe how much joy my new (to me) wool coat brought me every single step of the way

#ember talks #it is the most wonderful knee length wool cashmere blend that I got secondhand #genuinely the nicest article of clothing I’ve ever owned #and it feels? Really nice to have a coat that fits for the first time in ~6 years #I know it probably looks a little silly and extra but it’s the thing that kept me going this week and thus I love it more than life atm #I’m so so sorry to my irls who have heard me talk about this coat at length already #I. have been awake for 24 hours now and I’m crying over how much I love this coat

oh yeah by the way I forgot to mention but the lab assistant guy did in fact give me those clothes they wanted to get rid of. Huge hit with Cashmere.

I don't think that ppl who insist plus sized clothing should be more expensive because it's """so much more fabric""" have ever been to a fabric store in their life

#the waist size difference between a xxs and 6xl is about a yard. a yard of cotton at fucking joanne fabrics costs like 5 dollars #I think that multimillion dollar companies can affort to lose like 7 dollars on a pair of pants #also most of the cost of clothes unless its like 100% cashmere or silk is for labor not materials #which is why clothes made in places that can pay their 'employees' 6 cents an hour sell cheaper clothes #of course materials is part of it but huge corporations usually do not have to worry about cost of materials #and also go fuck yourself #ghost posts #text

Torrid is selling a whole line of "vegan cashmere" cardigans and sweaters this season [fall 2023].

How about instead of calling it "vegan cashmere", they just call it what it really is: PLASTIC.

Which is a thousand times worse for the environment than actual cashmere because every time you wash one of those sweaters and cardigans you'll just be putting even more microplastics into the environment.
