If you love a DVD you got from Netflix, you still put it in the envelope and send it back for a replacement. That's where all of these clothing services fall short. If I keep the clothing I like, I end up with a pile of dirty clothing (that I like). Let me return it all, check a box indicating what I liked, then send me a clean but comparable replacement. Heck, if you follow the Netflix model and let me browse styles online, I'll be able to fine-tune my tastes in no time, without the help of any fashion consultant. As a man, I don't mind shopping, but I'm frustrated when I'm confronted with swimsuits on a day I want to buy a turtleneck, and laundry's a chore. An online closet would solve a number of headaches for a lot of men.
- philwelch 16y agoI rather suspect the segment of people who would rather ship dirty laundry via UPS and have it replaced with different clothing rather than just doing their laundry is comparatively small. The people who can afford such a luxury can generally afford to have a washer and dryer in their residence, or at least a straight-up laundry service. Also, your idea would require used clothing to be laundered and shipped out to other customers. There's probably room for an online Goodwill, but that's literally what it would have to be.
