Just to clarify: this video includes various international, multibrand websites, at different price points, with prestigious brands, less-famous brands, sportswear brands, activewear brands, etc. Some websites are on the expensive/luxury side, I personally couldn’t afford all brands in there but, by using the filters (e.g. set maximum price), sorting by ascending price (lowest price first) and spending some time browsing, I find brands and items that fit both my budget and my personal ethics - the price tag alone is not a guarantee for ethical production, which was discussed in previous videos on this channel.
Of course, this list is not exhaustive, there are other places to shop: local brands, makers based in your region and single-brand websites are definitely options to consider. Second-hand shopping is an affordable option: here I mentioned 2 that focus on high-end items and do ship internationally, to which you can add local second-hand stores which don’t offer shipping (that depends where in the world you are, so you probably know them better than me ;-)

My outlook on clothing has changed significantly since I started watching your videos. As a uni student I don't have a lot of money to spend on clothes, but I started to realise that I'd regularly buy a lot of cheaper quality, fast fashion clothing that tended to come with quite a high price tag anyway. Over the past few months I've stopped myself from buying clothes and just before I went to Italy this summer I splurged and bought ONE linen dress from an Australian designer Hansen & Gretel. I wore that dress so many days on holiday and have gotten more wear out of it than any of those cheap clothes that sat in my closet.


Thank you for educating people on the fashion industry and how to buy good quality clothes. Still on my journey to a capsule wardrobe and loving your videos along the way :)

These clothes are expensive and most of them are not ethically made. So.... the difference from fast fashion is mainly quality. But few can afford to buy such expensive clothes. I’ve bought from Vestiaire before, it’s second hand so it’s by definition more sustainable, but you cannot return items and ending up paying hundreds of euros for a piece that doesn’t fit, is not a bargain. Anyway, it’s just a thought

[justineleconte]

Hi everyone! One more note: on all these websites, you can filter by brand, by price and by size. It will tailor the resulting list of items to match your budget and your ethics. Feel free to comment & recommend brands you think more people should know about 💜

[Foundlilly]

Affordable tips: People Tree, Armed Angels, ASOS Marketplace, Vestiaire, Basic Apparel, Organic Basics, SKFK, Dedicated, Nudie Jeans. For the US: Everlane is an option. But my best advice: change your mindset. A nice style is not about wearing new items. Try to find a style that is not sensitive for fleeting fast fashion trends (trends that are only made to make you spend money). Find your style and colors and you will save money by building a wardrobe that looks good on you without the constant inflow of new items. Life is too short and beautiful to spend too much time on shopping and worrying if you follow fleeting trends. Follow yourself! 🤗

Whilst agreeing that buying a smaller quantity of higher quality clothes makes a lot of sense, most of the prices per item shown are more than half my yearly clothing budget! You can probably find similar high quality items, which are not designer branded, at a much lower price.

I find the more money I spend on clothes the more difficult they are to look after and the less wear I get out of them. (Unless it is more like tailoring) Dry cleaning is very expensive in the UK, I would never buy anything that came in contact with my armpits that is not machine washable unless it was a very special occasion item. Yet I have bought High Street fashion that has lasted and lasted. One of my favourite skirts ever was an early Tesco Supermarket item. And 1980s Next was lovely stuff which washed and washed. This is more important than anything to modern working women and Mums at home alike. I wish more shops would just find fabrics which don’t shrink or fade too badly, sew them together properly and make them suit real women. Fashion is such a con.

[nikita]

I guess its better to buy small, local, independent brands - it will be more expensive than fast fashion, but not that expensive as those sites mentioned in the video.
For luxury brand seekers video is great.

[elenaarkocheva]

That is why fast fashion is not going to loose popularity - the prices for a "good" fashion are just insane.

[lastpidigit]

I think the video title is a bit misleading. There weren't really any pro tips for online shopping, just a list of credible websites

[kristamendelson]

With all due respect Justine, I don’t think anyone needs fashion advise on 500 pound/euro designer clothes and accessories. It’s simple to buy luxury items without a budget. Even if you had only 40 pieces in your wardrobe like women used to have.. the inflated prices make a quality garment much less accessible for the average women.

[crocolagerfelden]

Although not stated explicitly here, the overarching idea is that designer means more ethical, which is a fallacy to say the least. Your designer items quite often are produced in similar sweatshops that Zara and H&M use and feature environmentally unfriendly materials, except a bigger margin is added. I can only accept haute couture being an indicator of fairly paid workers and truly superior quality of garments (setting aside the use of environmentally questionable fabrics). I wish there were actual suggestions on what brands are ethical and at least relatively high quality, without paying a colossal premium for designer items that are not necessarily ethical or truly well-made. My suggestion is, if you are considering (let alone can afford) spending your money on a designer item of clothing, better find a good tailor locally, you are likely to save money, get a good quality item that fits well, choose your own fabrics and not look like a walking billboard with all the YSL and D&G poking out.

Can anyone here really afford this stuff? I can't. And I'm not a student, but a working architect.

[mktemple]

I'm not interested in Name Brands, but quality. Just because it's drom a damous label doesn't necessarily mean it's a high quality piece. I've seen name brand pieces with beginner construction mistakes far too many times to say that nay lavek is synonomous with quality.

[psedineh]

Thanks, as always, Justine. Could you do a video on shopping second-hand (charity shops, thrift shops, vintage, etc) for quality clothing & accessories? This could address both sustainable shopping and affordability. Thanks, Jennifer in NYC.

[nataliacv]

Good video! is there any website or brand that is good quality but on a budget?.... all the brands or web sites in the video are sooo expensive :(

[stacyf]

Do you think fast fashion was born from the need of affordable options? A lot of people can’t afford $1500 for a single pair of pants. Is the high price fashion Industry partly to blame?

[mimcin]

I don't want to be negative, but not everyone has or wants to spend 200 dollars on T-shirt and 4000 dollars on a coat.. and these items are on sale ..:)

[kirsten]

Some clothing brands that are good quality, sustainable, and a little more affordable: Filippa K, Arket, Rita Row, Nanushka, The Collection One, Ecoalf, People Tree, Baum and Pferdgarten, Bruuns Bazaar, House of Dagmar, Lucy & Yak, ceciliecopenhagen, bleed clothing, essentiel antwerp, versegoodstore, armed angels, twothirds, Sessun.

[SmarandaC]

Basically with these examples is saying tæt good quality equals expensive designer brands. I disagree. We don't all need to wear ysl or spend 400euros on a skirt. Not sure I like these examples very much.
