WHAT IS FASHION
Fashion is a term usually used in a positive sense, as a synonym for glamour, beauty and style it is also applies to a prevailing mode of expression, but quite often applies to a personal mode of expression that
may or may not apply to all.
Fashion is something we deal with everyday. Even people who say they don't care what they wear, they choose clothes every morning that say a lot about them and how they feel that day.Fashion is big business. More people are involved in buying, selling and production of clothing than any other business in the world. Everyday, millions of workers design, sew, glue, dye, and transport clothing to stores.
Current global fashion centres are London, Milan, Paris and New York, but
other cities like Rome and Tokyo are also becoming well known.
Why is it important?
Fashion is a means of self-expression that allows people to try on many roles in life. It's a way of celebrating the diversity and
variety of the world in which we live. Fashion is about change which is
necessary to keep life interesting . At the same time, fashion shouldn't be taken too
seriously or you lose the fun of it.
