I have a few clothing items that have memories attached to them, like two dresses that I wore to my graduation and a shirt I purchased to wear to a concert. That shirt is over a decade old, but I also still like it.

I just have a few things my mother wore that bring back good memories.

I bought this shirt that has diamond colored beads all over it and the last real conversation I had with my grandma before she died was to ask her if I should reinforce the stitching on them.  She said yes, which I did then showed it to her.  Her eyes were failing her so she ran her hand over it and said she did like what I had done.  Now that she has passed on, every time I wear the shirt it makes me think of her.  It's one of the few things I can attach to her and not cry about.

I don't have any clothes I attach bad memories to.  I have some old clothes that I have memories of that time period.  Some old clothes I regret giving away though.  I'm not buying as many clothes as I used to.  I have way too many clothes.

No, I don't recall any of my clothing reminding me of a memory. I am glad of that because I would not want to be reminded of some of the memories I have. Majority are good memories but I do have a few bad ones.

I have a few shirts I've refused to get rid of because they were given to me by someone or I wore them to a special event.

I don't attach memories to clothes.  I have some favorite pieces of clothing.

I can't wear the dress I wore to my Mom's funeral anymore.

I kept the last piece of clothing along with a pair of earring that  my mom purchased me for my birthday before she past away.  Cannot seem to let go of them even though I no longer use either one.  Not sure the clothing would fit anymore.

No, I do not; they are just clothes that serve a purpose; when they no longer serve my purpose if they are in fairly good shape; i just donate so someone else can enjoy or benefit  from.
