"Make your wardrobe last a lifetime with this practical beginner's guide to caring for your clothes. The average person buys 56 items of new clothing each year and wears them seven times before getting rid of them. Over fifty percent of the clothes we purge ends up in landfill overseas, so it's about time we slowed down to find a solution to our fast-fashion addiction. In How to Keep Your Clothes Forever, textile designer Leah Giblin shares thoughtful and easy ways to repair, renew, and care for the clothes you already love and own that are not just good for your wallet, but the planet too."--
