Christopher Breward’s Aphorisms

“Fashion is intensely personal, in the same way that poetry is intensely personal. It is a medium through which personal stories can be told, memories re-lived and futures foretold.”

I agree with this statement because it claims that fashion is connected with personal life experiences, opinions, feelings, memories, and so on. It is true that each individual will have his or her own personal style since everyone has different stories to tell others. They also have a great variety of expressions by using fashion as a medium to communicate with each other. I think it is important for people involved with fashion to come up their personal ideas on what they try to create.

 

“Fashion is gossip. Never underestimate the power of gossip. Semiologists are driven into ecstasies of supposition by its whispers.”

I agree with this statement that people nowadays pay more attention on fashion whether their daily wear or formal style. It is interesting to find out that if one of the most famous people wears a type of cloth with luxury brand and photographs by the media, the public will follow this person’s lead by wearing the same cloth since they will consider themselves as fashion. I believe fashion is just like gossip since it can spread to others even in the entire world.
