Fashion is not just a name we through around every day. It’s a symbol of uniqueness and popularity. But, what is the real definition of fashion? I’ll tell you, fashion is a prevailing style. Everyone tends to follow the same fashion sense as the media. For example, the reality TV show the “Jersey Shore,” displayed tanning as well as the “poof,” or “blow out” hair. Now that spring has arrived and summer is on its way, mostly everyone in New Jersey just has to get a tan or the same hair style as the Guido’s.
But, who really declares fashion trends? Personally, I think anyone can set a trend. All you have to do is throw together different garments, and/or do edgy make-up or hair styles. For, instance pop singer Rihanna went with an edgy hair cut. She went from long classy hair, to a short rock star look. Now everyone is cutting their hair. I must admit, I recently cut my hair. Not as short as Rihanna’s but it is shorter than before. Short hair is in style this spring 2010.
However, even though I feel anyone can set a trend. I highly doubt I would be the first to start a new look. Imagine yourself wearing an outrages outfit, into a crowd of people. The crowd will actually stop, look, and point you out just to discuss what you’re wearing. But, that’s all about setting a trend. It has to be fierce
(I use the word fierce as stunning and not violent) statement. Lady Gaga is one of those trend setters. She pushes the limit of fashion to the extreme. Gaga does not care what individuals think of her, and yet her fashion is fabulous. You might not wear it on an everyday basic, but it does fit in on the runway, on the carpet, or the stage.
At Red Bank Regional High School, there a two types of fashion. Some people decide to follow the media, while other starts to create their own. The ones that create their own get many stares and attention from other students. Recently, a girl decided to wear a costume that represented the Buccaneer. As, I walked down the hallway behind her, I heard a couple of kids giggling “Ehww why is she wearing that.” The truth is she wore it because she wants to make a statement, she wants to be trend setter, she wants to be unique, and lastly she wants to create her own identity.
Everyone feels that the media is the ideal fashion. They set the colors that are in style, the trendy outfits, the fabulous hair, and the fierce accessories. But, really fashion lies within oneself. Either you want to grab people’s attention or go with the flow. Just know, either way someone will happen to stare at you and admire your outfit from a distance. So, walk with your head high and strut your stuff!
