Affordable Fashion: Where is Our Industry Headed?

With the trend of "fast fashion" in high gear I can't help but wonder what's next for our sensitive, little world? Retailers like Forever 21, Zara, and Mango have been able to prosper during a global, economical depression. People everywhere are becoming much more accustomed to paying less and haggling more. Now, to add another nail to the retail coffin, is the occurrence of designer labels being forced to sell their lines on Ebay due to lack of sales. While the collection may not be the most "high quality" of fashions, Lindsay Lohan's 2010 line for Ungaro has now made its way to Ebay to make up for losses experienced in the market. With designers now creating lines not just as features for stores like Target, collections for retailers like Ebay, and now resorting to selling their lines THROUGH Ebay, what do you think is next for the retail industry?
