Stop Buying So Much Rubbish: How Having Fewer, Better Things Can Make Us Happier
Today the average person has nearly five times as many clothes as they did just 50 years ago. Our wardrobes are full to bursting with clothes we never wear so why do we keep buying more?
Join Great British Sewing Bee judge and passionate campaigner for better clothing and ethical fashion, Patrick Grant, as he explores his mission to make us all consume fewer clothes – but love and care for those we have. Weaving in his personal journey through fashion, clothing and the other everyday objects in his life, Less is a book that celebrates craftsmanship, making things with care, buying things with thought and valuing everything we own.
