It’s Official—Fashion People Are Obsessed With These 25 Basic Fashion Items

After all this, it’s clear to us that some basics are just better than others. Take Arket’s famous Hopsack blazer, for example—it’s a style the brand has sold for years now. I have it in multiple colours (as do many of my fellow editors and influencer pals) and people always compliment me on it, asking if it’s designer. Through Who What Wear articles alone we’ve sold almost 1,000 of them, and after trying endless styles (I’m a blazer girl, trust me), I stand by it being the best around. The same goes for Arket’s perfect white T-shirt (I buy these in bulk for fear of them discontinuing it). Other best-selling hero buys our research turned up, include H&M’s budget-friendly wide-leg trousers (we sold over 2,000 pairs of these last year alone), Totême’s iconic...

Abuja residents: Why we buy ‘second hand’ clothes

Some residents of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) in Bwari Area Council say they patronise the clothes not only because of its affordability but also for the upgraded standard. The buyers spoke in separate interviews with newsmen at the Dutse-Alhaji market on Sunday in Abuja.
