I'll save you the read:

1) People are tightening their belts due to economic and political uncertainty and expensive leggings are not at the top of the list of necessities

2) People are more and more... GASP... Buying second hand clothes !!!!!

Lulu hasn’t been innovative in a long time. They just release the same things in different colors. How many ppl need the same sweater or tights in multiple colors. Also the quality has gone way down and the price has gone up. They aren’t inclusive in sizes either and mostly only work on the skinny and small chested.

I like Lulu but I’ve only bought 2 things in the last 2 years. A belt bag and a sweatband.

Not even releasing the same thing (quality wise.)

Could justify a Lulu buy when I found something that had superior fit for me and would reasonably last. (especially considering my best fitting stuff is also seeing the most wear)

Not that way anymore (though I've heard the men's fell off faster than the women's and, if you are good with textiles/fabrics, you can navigate women's is you work at it)

Yes totally. Not releasing the same quality and not releasing the whole colorway at once. Nobody wants to wait months for another color in the set to maybe come out.

How are we going to pay for eggs if we buy $128 leggings?
