Cost Per Wear Explained: How to Shop Smarter and Build a Wardrobe That Lasts

Cost-per-wear is everywhere right now, from wardrobe apps to social media trends promising a “smarter” way to shop. And while cost-per-wear can be a powerful tool, most conversations stop at the maths. In this solo episode, Alex Standley (Personal Stylist and Sustainable Fashion Consultant) shares the deeper layer of cost-per-wear most people never hear about. Drawing on 15 years as a global fashion buyer for brands including Marks & Spencer and Amazon, Alex explains why cost-per-wear isn’t a formula, but a *decision-making skill*. This episode continues last week’s conversation on body confidence and identity. Because once you reconnect with who you are now, the next question becomes: How do you shop smarter without falling back into old habits? Alex breaks down how cost-per-wear actually starts before you buy anything, shaped by fabric choice, garment construction, fit, quality, longevity, and lifestyle alignment.  Through real-life examples from knitwear and coats, she shows why cheaper clothing often becomes the most expensive option over time, and how understanding quality can save you money, reduce waste, and simplify your wardrobe. She also breaks down the most common mistakes women make when buying clothing and why.
