one of the funniest things about how much fast fashion has infiltrated /everywhere/ so thoroughly the past decade is the fact that when I went looking for christmas presents I was seeing exactly the same patterns of fabrics used for different outfits in totally unrelated shops- like when I was a kid it'd be unthinkable to see the exact same fabric being sold as a dress in a name brand surf shop and then seeing it as pants in sports girl and then seeing it as a jumpsuit in the expensive hippie shop- these are all completely separate shops, they aren't like sister stores or something, they even have varying price points and yet that exact same print of fabric is in all of them? this never used to happen. if something was sold in a surf shop, it was only in that surf shop. if something was sold in Ghanda, it was only sold in ghanda. Now though? idk, kinda seems like they all order from the same giant offshore manufacturers....
