English Abstract: The economic crisis, caused by the Pandemic of the new coronavirus (COVID-19), has a significant impact on purchasing practices and the way consumers justify their consumption patterns. Particularly in the field of fashion, consumers face a conflict between the desire to consume due to rapid changes in fashion trends and facing the decrease in purchasing power due to the installed crisis. The aim of this research is to analyze how the current economic crisis has affected consumers' fashion consumption behavior and what alternative consumption practices have emerged. To achieve the research objective, twenty semi-structured interviews were used during the months of April and May 2020. The survey also clarifies the underlying feelings involved due to changes in consumption patterns. Some of the themes that emerge; reuse, reduce and reject, which are in line with previous findings on anti-consumption, but this time the reasons for consumers are not voluntary, but caused by a general health crisis with economic consequences. The study also shows that there are positive and negative feelings associated with changes in consumer behavior due to the current economic crisis. Together with the understanding of adaptations in consumption behavior, anticipating these conflicting emotions resulting from crisis-related anti-consumption is important for marketers and retailers concerned with developing appropriate response strategies for the post-Pandemic of COVID-19.
