Cost per wear

Let’s talk cost per wear

Is it something you consider when purchasing a style? Spoiler ... you should. 

To splurge or skimp?

Often the reason for wear dictates - we tend to splurge on event wear for example, but skimp on a simple tee.

Whatever style you are purchasing, it’s always worth considering a few points which help attach a value to the dollar spend. This is a savvy way to curate a wardrobe.

• How many outfits can you create with this new style you're considering?
• Is it a ‘trend’ style?
• Where and how will you wear the style?
• Does the style have year-round wear?
• Can the style be dressed up or down, just with accessories?
• How does the fabric quality feel?
• Will it withstand frequent laundering?
• How does it fit and feel on you?
• Do you feel good about the buy?

Many of our Philosophy pieces are styles we consider part of our Always collection. These include Bengaline, Foundation, City and Lustre styles.

These are styles we believe are the perfect version of themselves and ones we continue to offer every season, and year in and year out. 

We offer these to you with confidence that these garments bring value, versatility, quality, ease, and timeless style.

$139 for a pair of our miracle bengaline pants for example, that we often hear are worn, loved, washed, and repeated frequently, and for years, is sensible shopping!  Whilst also giving you the added feel good factor of knowing you are supporting Australian fashion and a small women owned, run and (largely) staffed Australian business1

Does that highly priced and craved item, or the cheap piece you picked up without a second thought offer you that?
