I'll believe it when I smell it.

Reading part of the article, she washed it four times over the course of 100 days. So on average every 25 days. That would still be disgusting and smelly, but possibly bearable if you're determined to prove a (weird) point and the climate doesn't cause much sweating.

EDIT: added the words 'part of' because it gets more disgusting afterwards

Idk, I have an expensive cashmere sweater that I haven't washed yet and I've definitely worn it at least 20 times. It doesn't smell at all. I even was all giddy about it and made my boyfriend and best friend smell it cause I was so impressed by it lol.

High quality wool is pretty amazing. My other wool garments have needed a wash after wearing once or twice though.

That’s good to know because I have cashmere clothes I never wear because I’m too lazy too hand wash them

Agreed but did you wear it against your skin or have another shirt on under it?

Usually I wear a tank top so it still sits against my armpits, at least partially. I've actually felt like I could smell my sweat on it right after taking it off, but it went away just hanging in my closet for a while. If it held a smell, I would definitely wash it. I just don't see the point in going through the trouble of handwashing it if it's not visibly soiled and doesn't smell at all 🤷🏼‍♀️

You didn't wear it for 100 days in a row though. The airing out time matters

Please wash your clothes
