Abstract
Fashion style is important. You clothes make your fashion statement, and how you're perceived. Stand straight and carry yourself with grace. You will radiate self confidence. For many years people have put some message in the way they dress. Some dressed differently to stand out of the crowd which became very popular and others followed. Clothing has become an integral part of self-realization of every person. This necessity brings a lot of variety into the lives of people and makes their image more complete.
Fashion is probably the most important thing for today's youth. The youth always worried about how they look when they go to school or go out. They don't want to look silly in front of their friends, and therefore end up spending a lot of money on their clothes and want to make sure they try and avoid repeating their clothes. Fashion these days, play a very important role in people’s lives and have a huge impact as well.
IS FASHION IMPORTANT? (basically its your case study)
”Fashion is an art.
It's a religion. It's a job. It's a peek into a personality. It's playfulness. It's an escape or a disguise. It is a feast for the eyes. But ultimately, fashion is an individual statement of expression for each of us.” (Wendy Maxey). Fashion is very important in our everyday lives. Now days we would like to think that we can tell a lot about a person by the way they dress, but that might not always be the case.
You may not notice this but people now days observe you and look at what you are wearing and judge you according to how you dress. "Fashion is not something that exists in dresses only. Fashion is in the sky, in the street, fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening." (Coco Chanel). Fashion isn't defined solely by our clothing choices, but is also conveyed through the way we carry ourselves, our personalities and our views of the world. Fashion is everything from the way you wear your hair, to the accessories, to the shoes you wear, to the clothes, to the designs and the way you carry off all of these combined. When you dress for work, you dress for the job you want to have not the one you have. This shows that you are willing to go that extra step. In social life how you dress will help others determine your interest.
Fashion is something we deal with everyday. Even people who say they don't care what they wear choose clothes every morning that say a lot about them and how they feel that day. One certain thing in the fashion world is change. We are constantly being bombarded with new fashion ideas from music, videos, books, and television. Movies also have a big impact on what people wear. Ray-Ban sold more sunglasses after the movie Men In Black. Sometimes a trend is world-wide. Back in the 1950s, teenagers everywhere dressed like Elvis Presley. Fashion is revealing. Clothes reveal what groups people are in. In high school, groups have names: "goths, skaters, preps, herbs." Styles show who you are, but they also create stereotypes and distance between groups. For instance, a businessman might look at a boy with green hair and multiple piercings as a freak and outsider. But to another person, the boy is a strict conformist. He dresses a certain way to deliver the message of rebellion and separation, but within that group, the look is uniform. Acceptance or rejection of a style is a reaction to the society we live in.
Fashion is a language which tells a story about the person who wears it. "Clothes create a wordless means of communication that we all understand," (Katherine Hamnett, a top British fashion designer). There are many reasons why we wear what we wear, that is for Physical attraction: many styles are worn to inspire “chemistry”, we display emotions: we dress "up" when we're happy and "down" when we're upset, to show a religious expression: Orthodox Jewish men wear long black suits and Islamic women cover every part of their body. Clothes have an immense impact on the perception of people around and on the perception of the person wearing them, too. A suit can make a person feel more confident and organized, which would eventually change even the gestures and the manner of talking of the person or for instance wearing jeans after a suit may change the conduct of a person to a very liberal and feeble one. Dressing has become a way to create, to reveal and to conceal information from the external observers. Fashion has always been considered to have more of a women based orientation.
As soon as women realized that experimenting with their clothing might bring them the results they need they became the most interested consumers and the demand on women’s production increased greatly. Throughout the history starting with the middle ages men’s fashion has changed a lot. If the era of Renaissance was characterized by increased femininity in men’s clothes, the end of the twentieth century became the moment of maximal revealing of masculinity for men. As every person belongs to a definite culture and has the right to reveal it, personal identity may sometimes be replaced by cultural identity. Cultural identity is the type of identity that is related to a certain culture or a separate group. It brings people belonging to a culture definite highlighting differences with other people. Demonstrating a belonging to a certain cultural community is the free right of every person like people that freely declare who they are going to vote for. Talking about culture it is possible to mention that nowadays exists ”material culture” that dictates its own ways and code of dressing.
Conclusion
Fashion is a very important part of life. People don’t get jobs, people are judged, people are not taken seriously, all because of the way people dress. The way you dress matters a lot these days, it talks about yourself and also shows what kind of person you are. The way your present yourself plays an important role because first impression matters and it speaks a lot about yourself. You may not be able to afford many things or you may, as long as you have that sense of taste, know your body and know what looks good on you and know it makes you look presentable. Like Oleg Cassini “Fashion anticipates, and elegance is a state of mind ... a mirror of the time in which we live, a translation of the future, and should never be static.”
