In detail: Cost Per Wear Calculator for a £25 Item
A £25 item costs £0.83 per wear at 30 wears — roughly "worn fortnightly for a year." That's the useful comparison: not the sticker price, but what it costs per actual use. A £25 coat worn 100+ times is better value than a £6 coat worn twice.
At this price point, cost-per-wear analysis is usually favourable — even low wear counts produce reasonable per-wear costs. The bigger risk here is quantity: buying three £25 items instead of one better piece usually produces worse wardrobe outcomes.
Cost-per-wear works less well for items you love wearing rarely (a wedding outfit, a formal coat) — some purchases are worth their per-wear cost for emotional reasons. The calculation is a check, not a verdict.
