In this episode, Salomé reflects on her experience of not buying new clothes for 6 months. She goes over why she decided to start the challenge, the many themes it brought up (i.e. awareness around a constant craving for novelty, social media peer pressure, thoughts on repeating outfits), and how it changed her relationship to clothes.
