Aussies spend more on clothes than anywhere in world
In a revelation that may not be shocking for us as Australians, Statista has ranked the top spending countries in the world, and we’ve taken the number one spot.
Statista comprised a list comparing the average annual expenditure that nine regions spent on clothing, and Australia came out on top, shelling out US$1,050 per year.
Second to us came Canada, followed not far behind by Japan, who spent US$831 and US$814 a year respectively.
The remaining numbers were as follows:
4. EU-27 members: $663
5. United States: $686
6. Russia: $272
7. Brazil: $273
8. China: $109
9. India: $36
We have to wonder whether this list included the cost of apparel’s international shipping, because if so, that would really explain a lot.
