Following my last blog, I intend dedicating a couple of blogs to DIY as this is definitely a way to live sustainably.....Oh yes it is!
A friend of mine recently wanted a UnikOutfit to which I said, "yes, but I need your measurements". I offered her 3 simple measuring steps and thought off you go, but she looked at me strangely and said...." I don't have a measuring tape". Really, you don't own a measuring tape for body measurements?....I wonder how many of you reading this fall under this category. If you belong to this group, just email me and a measuring tape is on its way to you.
The humble body measuring tape should be in every household, I mean we all wear clothes, right? (I hope the answer is a yes) and want to have a perfect fit! For the perfect fit, you need clothes customized to suit your body shape and size.
How many times have you seen an outfit and think.....I want that exact outfit. You rush out to the shop or even hit some buttons on your mobile phone to shop online. You think, "I know my size... a nice EU 36". You purchase the outfit, 2 days later it arrives and upon trying it on you realize....it does not fit, at least not like how it looked on the model in the photo.....S#!t.
I bet you do one of the following when you purchase an outfit that does not fit the way you expected it:
1. Return the outfit back to the shop: See my previous blog for why this option is not sustainable
