That really depends. If you buy a tshirt it was probably made paying someone like 5c a day.
If you find someone who makes clothing, just a normal arse person not someone catering to the rich, they can probably make a basic tshirt to your rough size in about 3 hours or so. If they’re paid a reasonable fee that’s going to be in my country for example 200 aud or so factoring in material. A sweat shop T would be 20 to 50, or even 80 in a high end store so it’s really not much more expensive.
Wear it till it has holes in it so say 5 to 10 years and it’s really not that expensive.
More complicated clothing gets more expensive but a basic wardrobe is something like 3 Ts, 3 long sleave tops, 2 heavy pants, 2 light pants/skirts etc. you don’t need to buy it all at once. Sometimes you need more clothes than that, e.g. you’re a woman and you work customer facing but most people have waaaaay more clothes than they need.

No, you just have to do laundry more than once a week. Most people who don’t have their own washer or dryer don’t have time for that.
What are you doing where you can’t wear pants for a week or a top for 3 days?
Hard labour you don’t wear new clothes you wear your old tattered stuff and hand me downs/second hand etc, or toughened workwear.
It sounds like you want to find a reason to do nothing rather than do what you can. Like if you want to avoid enslaving others and animal cruelty your lifestyle will have to change because your lifestyle is based on exploitation. If you don’t want to change then get comfortable with slavery, idk what else to say.
Rather than shoot down things, why don’t you say how much time you’re willing to put into it and how much money? and what resources you have?
Nothing. On the other hand, wearing 3 shirts for more than 3 days makes people not want to come near you due to the stench.

Ok. I’m unemployed, I have to spend my days helping my daughter with online schoolwork and I did buy new clothing this year because I’ve lost 60 pounds due to a still yet-to-be diagnosed illness where I haven’t eaten any solid food since August and dropping down that many sizes is not fixable by just altering pants. Let alone underwear.
Any more personal info you’d like? My telephone number? My bank balance?
