What does fashion mean?

Fashion is a term used interchangeably to describe the creation of clothing, footwear, accessories, cosmetics, and jewellery of different cultural aesthetics and their mix and match into outfits that depict distinctive ways of dressing ( styles and trends) as signifiers of social status, self-expression, and group belonging.

Why is fashion so important?

From formals to casuals, fashion speaks beyond purposes. Over the years, it has found a safe abode in music, videos, movies and commercials. These in turn, influence us as a society. The fashion world is booming with designs, patterns, fabrics, embellishments and colours forging forward every single day.

What is the difference between fashion and clothing?

Clothing describes the material and the technical garment, devoid of any social meaning or connections; costume has come to mean fancy dress or masquerade wear.

What is fashion style?

Fashion style is a specific way of dressing showcasing similar aesthetics and designs adopted and transformed by communities and subcultures – Punk, Preppy, Goth, Y2K – to express their cultural identity and values.
