Statement of the Art

What is fashion?

Fashion is an indefinite aesthetics, when it comes to a person’s clothes, accessories make-up and hairstyle. It is an expression of one’s persona. What you wear says a lot about you, not that the things you wear or do to accessorize yourself is what exactly makes a remark to audience (when I say audience I mean random people around) It is more of how you wear it is what leaves an impression.

What is the relevance of Fashion?

People are like books, fashion serves as the spine of the book. You wouldn’t know what a certain book contains from page to page when it is stored on a shelf with few other books but you can have an idea on what it is all about because you can see what is written on it’s spine. When you saw someone on suit, you’ll conclude that the person is a businessman or has to be in a formal gathering. If you saw a lady in her late-thirties with a Birkin bag, you’ll probably think that she’s an old money. We know that by this day and age stereotyping is completely out of the table but what I am trying to emphasize is whether we like it or not we are always going to create an impression towards the life and personality of other people from the garments and details they chose to sport. A judgement based on the social construct.

So the question now is how can I make a statement through fashion?

This was supposed to be the part where I tell you to wear this, get that, but no, this is not that type of content, because honestly as much as I love to watch and read articles about 101 guides to becoming a Fashionista, I will not going to tell a story through the mouth of anyone. You see each and every one of us has their own story and whether we are conscious or not we are telling it to the world through our fashion.
That makes fashion an art, we have our own reasons why we wore clashing prints from head to toe, why we wore leggings under a shorts or why did we choose to wear a see through top in the middle of winter. Some people will take a good look at you and will create a judgment about your story in their minds while majority of people will just walk past through and won’t bother to care about you.
You’ve created an impression into few people just like what art does, and that’s what you call Statement of the Art right there.

I really hope that you get my point but whatever I just wanted to say that fashion makes our lives way more exciting or maybe just mine, I’m not sure I don’t know you, maybe you don’t too. That’s some existential life crisis line right there. This is getting out of context so I’ll just end it here. I just messed up with with your mind didn’t I? :[
