The truth behind fashion changes
One year skirts are long, and the next they’re short. Jeans are narrow one year, and baggy the next. The only certain thing about fashion is that it is always changing! It’s hard to keep up if you always want to wear the latest fashions. Who decides what is fashionable
One big influence on fashion is advertising. The fashion industry spends a great deal of money advertising their products: online, in magazines, on screens and in outdoor advertisements. We often see images of “beautiful people” living exciting lives, dressed in expensive clothes. They are all around us, so they influence our thoughts about how we look. However, if you see the truth behind advertising, you will be careful when you spend money on fashion.
Popular culture also influences fashion. Famous people are often fashion pioneers. Film stars, sports stars, or even social media “influencers” are paid to wear fashionable clothes and jewellery, so they are always looking for new ways to attract attention. As a result, their fans follow their style. These fans are so blind that they don’t realise how much this behaviour costs them in time and money.
If we want to look good, do we really need to copy a beautiful model in a magazine or a social media influencer Don’t forget that there’s a better way to think about how you dress. Having your own style can mean wearing clothes that are older, but wearing them with confidence. As long as you feel comfortable and relaxed in them, you are creating your own personal style.
