In this episode, we dive into the messy world of dupe culture in fashion—how it influences our shopping habits, tugs at our emotions, and puts serious pressure on indie designers. We’re sharing our own dupe experiences, unpacking why certain fashion pieces mean so much, and taking a hard look at how overconsumption and knock-offs are shaping the industry. From the psychology behind why we crave certain items to the push for affordable fashion and the impact of throwaway culture, it’s a deep, lively conversation on buying with intention and navigating the gray areas of sustainability in fast fashion.
