Fashion for most of the people means making a statement. People do judge us based on our attire, but is it all that matters? Is is right to judge a person on something so materialistic such as dress sense? I have asked a couple of friends what fashion means to them and surprisingly quite a few connect it to one's personality, values etc . I mean c'mon does dressing make you think different! Does ethnic dressing mean that you are very narrow minded?? Wow this was a real shocker for me! Speaking to a fashion designer, who is a friend, she tells me that she loves designing because she can make anybody look flattering despite varying body structures. This gives her a sense of satisfaction and hopes that people would love their bodies the way they are and be more health aware than fashion aware. To be proud of yourself and your body is what matters the most, coz it turns out that neither fashion nor beauty are skin deep. Looks like the trite of anorexic models is not "in" anymore, esp with Chloe Marshall making news for the Miss England pageant in July. To me being chic is parallel to comfort and what a person can carry off well with grace, elegance and befitting for the occasion. Embracing fashion means that you can accept the changing trends and are open to ideas.
