Shopping for clothes is not as easy as it seems. While the size matters, quality matters even more.
When buying clothes, everyone wants value for money because nothing is as discouraging as spending money on clothes only for them to be torn after a few washes.
While some may argue that most local retailers are more expensive than international online retailers such as Temu and Shein but are of similar quality, they need to understand that retailers such as Mr Price, Foschini and Pick n Pay Clothing dont use cheap labour and dont follow fast fashion.
Most of them partner with local emerging designers to design specific collections to be sold at their stores. They also dont always do mass production.
For example, Mr Price has partnered with South African Fashion Week to allow both menswear and womenswear designers to create collections for the retailer under two national competitions, Mr Price New Talent Search and Mr Price Scouting Menswear.
