We’re all talking about

If you haven’t had time to keep up with Twitter, Facebook or Instagram, we’ve done it for you…

We don’t know about you, but our wardrobes are bursting with dresses, skirts, tops, coats and shoes – many of which we never actually wear. So we were shocked when we heard that one woman decided to live in just six items for six weeks. Frederique Gulcher, from New Zealand, took part in her ‘fashion fast’ to raise awareness about the unsustainable fashion industry, and chose two cotton tops, a pair of silky trousers, a linen skirt, a black dress and a three-quarter-length long-sleeved striped top to last her.

‘I definitely enjoyed not having to think about what I was going to wear, but it got boring,’ the 39-year-old said. ‘By the end, I had to throw one of the tops away as one of the sleeves had pulled off, the seam was coming off one of the skirts, and the silky pants had completely faded.’
