The topic that caught my attention was the use of body to create a face for fashion designers and brands. I am interested in this topic because it covers a multitude of issues: sexualization of the female body, fetishism of the ideal male and female bodies, the advertising of a very strict ideal (tall, and thin), the use of marketing that may not follow ethics but leads to profit in money, and more. I’ve always wondered why and how brands chose what they wanted to represent in their collections, and how they go through the process of following their personal goals, societal goals, and business goals. To any designer, I find this very important as designers can lead to influences and inspiration for future generations to follow. The change in branding slowly changes ethics and the minds of people from more than just one perspective.
