Consumer buying in America

How much are people wiling to spend on fashion? About 6 years ago an average college student was willing to spend 80 dollars on a shirt from A&F clothing or similar lines as them. Dam they must have been making a pretty good margin, but now that $80 shirt a college student use to buy they want 5 for $80. I wonder what shopping in America will be like once our economy bounces back. Do you think the consumer is going to become more picky on pricing or do you think we are going to go back to normal

what I plan to do

My mom tells me everyday that I should challenge myself and become a worldwide fashion designer...That is not my dream.I see too many big time, high profile, fashion designers everyday in the media. I even get angry that I can't look as glamorous as the girl on T.V. I know that other regular teens may feel the same as I do, and I feel their pain. No one can look as fab as the rich and famous. That is why I want to design for the teens that want to look and feel the way the rich do in their daily
