We talk with Emma Edwards about The Wardrobe Project, a year-long pause on clothes shopping that reveals how bias, body image, and culture fuel compulsive buying. The pause creates a new way to enjoy style without chasing constant newness.

• the no-buy year and why a full stop on shopping matters
• how hedonic adaptation keeps us stuck in the “newness” loop
• body image pressures and the polished ideal
• the clean girl trend, wellness purity and coded thinness
• fantasy self versus real self in our wardrobe choices
• practical ways to find joy using what you already own
• building an outfit album to retrain your eye
• confidence as practice, not purchase
