Fashion and Fear

The fashion world is a 700 hundred billion dollar industry however there is something about fashion that can make people feel very nervous. Some people are frightened of fashion, for some it makes them feel insecure or excluded and often these people say things to put fashion down and mock it, but just because someone wears skinny jeans from a high street shop as opposed to skinny jeans by a major designer doesn’t mean that they do not fall into the world of fashion. The fashion world is probably the most competitive industry in the world where one week something is hot and flying off the shelves then the next week it is out and forgotten about. It also isn’t just in the clothes we wear but the life we live. It’s in buildings we see, the furniture we buy and the art we adore. Fashion is a religion to many, they only wear pieces of clothing that are selected for them by magazines whereas others choose different sides to fashion where they use it to express their personality by selecting pieces of clothing which stands out or represents the mood or feeling they have that day.

Celebrity’s also playing a major role in influencing the fashion choices we make, take singer Rihanna as an example. She dyed her hair vivid red and within a week half the teenage girl population of the UK had dyed their hair that colour. As long as there’s celebrities they’re will we new and improved fashion trends weekly.

So when you’re making your next fashion choice will you be a trend follower? Or a trend setter?
