NWW of NM, Decision made mid May, some days back

A French Wardrobe is a wardrobe of basics that adds "just five pieces per season" (2x or 4x per year) to keep your look up to date without being a slave to fashion. 

The above is the description from r/FrenchWardrobe, a sub I own on Reddit.

Contrary to popular views that the fashion district is primarily about Haute Couture, this piece suggests the garment district began as a means to supply cheap clothes for slaves on Southern plantations.

The above is the first paragraph from a comment on a piece I posted to r/FashionisSmashin about the Garment District in Manhattan.

I'm certain I'm going to die of poverty and no one will ever hear of me and there will never be a clothing line.

But should I turn out to be wrong about that, I've decided to stay here in Albuquerque, New Mexico and not eat of the leaven of the Philistines and their brand of CRAZY in the New York fashion district because a lifetime of deconstructing whatever the hell went wrong with my life makes me believe there is a very real connection between the garment district beginning as a means to clothe literal SLAVES and the outcome that so many people feel like fashion is a gun to their head keeping them enslaved to stupid pointless trends that really only have ONE purpose:

To line the pockets of people making clothes who don't care about you and your quality of life AT ALL.

That's not any kind of Kool aid I want to partake of. Ever. For any reason.
