British women's secret shoe mountain

British women's shoe habits put Imelda Marcos to shame

British women hoard 7.5 million pairs of shoes they never wear, a survey has claimed.

Their wardrobes are also cluttered with some 2.2 million unused handbags and 5.2 million cocktail dresses, according to an eBay poll.

Almost one in 10 of the 2,388 women questioned owned jeans they never planned to wear again.

And 23 per cent still had a wedding dress stored away at home - around 5.1 million dresses nationwide.

Four out of five women questioned admitted hanging on to clothes long after they had stopped wearing them.

I think wedding dress is understandable

I have a few pairs of shoes that I havn't worn yet, I probably won't either, lol, it just seemed like a good idea at the time to buy them.

I hate buying shoes and own no handbags. But they could send some of those unwanted jeans and cocktail dresses my way.
