"Overdressed does for T-shirts and leggings what "Fast Food""Nation
"did for burgers and fries."
--Katha Pollitt
Cheap fashion has fundamentally changed the way most Americans
dress. Stores ranging from discounters like Target to traditional
chains like JCPenny now offer the newest trends at unprecedentedly
low prices. And we have little reason to keep wearing and repairing
the clothes we already own when styles change so fast and it's
cheaper to just buy more.
Cline sets out to uncover the true nature of the cheap fashion
juggernaut. What are we doing with all these cheap clothes? And
more important, what are they doing to us, our society, our
environment, and our economic well-being?
