A DePop Princess from the ecologically aware suburb of Newtown is wrestling with guilt today, as she contends with the fact she might have just caused the globe to become another degree hotter.
Having spent her Uni years living in the inner west of Sydney, Miley Harris (28) would never dare to be caught out in public buying or wearing fast fashion, aka the type of clothing people from the suburbs wear.
Thanks to living off a generous trust fund setup by her wealthy parents, Miley has managed to enjoy her Uni years without having to buy any single use items of clothing from Kmart, Zara or *gasp* White Fox, instead curating an elegant wardrobe of vintage finds and items from high-street shops which her Mum buys for her whenever they travel to London together.
As the proud curator of a wardrobe of exclusively thrifted clothes, Miley’s also the type of social media Queen who regularly reshares content that calls out naughty brands for their exploitative manufacturing processes, or posts clips of turtles who can’t breathe because they’re choking on a cheap H&M bra.
However after dancing the night away at Dua Lipa’s show at Qudos Bank Arena last night, it’s believed Miley couldn’t say no to forking out $140 for a hoodie made in the very same factory as the Kmart clothing she so publicly despises, and judges others for wearing.
“It’s just one jumper, give me a break!” said Miley, as she curled up on the couch and prepared to sign into her sustainable fashion practices online lecture.
Pulling tiny threads of fleece off the new jumper, which smells like it’s sat in a shipping container for over a year, Miley was coy about whether the quality matched up to the $140 investment.
“It’s like a limited edition piece!” she defended, pretending that it wasn’t just a Best & Less hoodie screen printed with some Dua Lipa logos .
“Besides, if I get sick of it, I’m sure I can flip it on DePop halfway through Winter!”
