What is Fashion?

What is fashion? There are some differences in the definitions of fashion since each study of area or scholar emphasizes their own thoughts. However, they commonly point out that “Fashion is a style that a lot of people accept in certain era.” Also, Fashion is formed by diffusion within society. The new styles have been emerged constantly, and as it has been spread out in the society, so the fashion was formed in that process.

I think fashion is a medium for each individual’s to express himself or herself. I used to come up with the words “fancy” or “stylish” when I think about fashion. However, I began to know that fashion is something more to those since it can convey or share one’s characteristics. I don’t think fashion is simply just clothes or something that decorates body. Fashion shows the person’s personality and his or her overall life style. Even though the person might not be conscious of that, fashion reflects his own opinions about the life. That is the reason why fashion is so attractive. Every one puffs out different feelings even though they wear same clothes since they possess different characteristics. While I was learning about “forming identities through fashion”, I realized that fashion is what surpasses gender, nation, sexuality, class, race, and age. Through fashion, we communicate, sympathize, and understand each other without any barriers.
