During the Industrial Revolution, many clothes began to be made in large quantities. This change made the skill of crafting clothes by hand less important. Here are some of the problems that came with this shift:

• Loss of Individuality: Instead of wearing unique pieces, people began to wear similar styles, making clothes feel more the same.
• Quality Decline: Many mass-produced items were not as strong or good-looking as those made by skilled hands.

To fix these problems, we can take a few steps:

• Promote Sustainable Practices: Support local artists and craftspeople to bring back handmade clothing.
• Consumer Awareness: Teach shoppers why it’s better to choose high-quality items instead of just buying a lot of cheap ones.

By appreciating handmade craftsmanship again, fashion can reconnect with its rich cultural roots.
