is fashion a reliable mirror of society

You are what you wear....

May this be true...?  This conveys just about everything in a minimal statement because our clothes tell us who we are in society and tells others about our personalities, our wants, needs, talents, dispositions and destination. If so, then clothing is a silent but powerful communicator. It can cover up, it can build or destroy an image. It can say 'I'm as good as you', 'I have the same interest', 'I'm important' or 'I'm not important' or even' I take myself' or my work too seriously'. At times, clothes are the only visible clues to an individual's personality. People respond and relate to the way we wear our clothing and clothes have now become a means for one human to evaluate another. A person is assessed the minute he or she enters the room, and most of this assessment is made from the clothes the person is wearing.

 Celebrities, politicans and royalty have the most influence on fashion and people blindly follow them reagardless of their socio economic tanding. So to classify an entire society as celebrities or politicans would be ridiculous. Most people adopt celebrity fashion, especially today. So to stereotype society into the rich and powerful would not be relaible or accurate. One cannot consider individuals to be rich and powerful just because they are dressed like those who are.


With today's changing pattern, fashion is becoming more and more important and conflicting with reality. nowaday's, people are not dressing up according to reality. Most girls would look for cheaper substitutes and buy them so one can call this a mirror of society, but not a RELIABLE one, as an onlooker may not know that the individual is wearing a cheap copy and would think 'ah same expensive glasses'.

Some woman and men are trend setters, you can still lookk fashionable when you go for an interview butin a decent appropriate way. First impressions count and a proffessional who doesnt take time to maintain a professional appearance presents the image of not being able to perform adequately on the job. Professional dress code in a successful organisation is strict because many professionals have never been taught appropriate professional appearance.  If you look and behave like a highly trained and well groomed professional you will win the respect and honor of your valued clients.

Plus Size Rocks

Acronym for P.H.A.T: Pretty Hott And Thick

Full figured woman have been around since time began and it seems like the most common term used to refere to them is "plus size".  I suppose that there is nothing wromg with the term but some woman find it a little offensive.  Larger womans clothing was often difficult to find and not many outlets stocked large sizes. However those that did, had a very limited range, very few sizes and the styles were very dull, unattractive and not sylish at all. No wonder plus size women had something to complain about.  Thankfully these days a whole lot of stores are now carrying and they cater a wider range in plus size women's fashion. There are a whole lot of pages on the internet dedicated to the larger sizes and more and more recognizable designers are seeing the light and starting to incorporate larger sizes in their collection.

Plus size women's fashion has become so popular that there are stores committed to just stocking plus sized clothes. The best thing about this though is that the choice in styles, colours and fabrics has increased dramatically and the demand for the larger sizes has never been so well received.

Women have never been happier. At last there is some relief for the fuller figured woman who loves fashion and is just as in love with the process of shopping for clothes. 

It's an A plus for those wonderful fashion people who have created such a great range of clothes in the larger sizes. Most plus size woman enjoy life and it's all thanks fabulous plus size threads.

 Larger women have found out that, finding an evening wear has become an all too difficult exercise. Not only are the items incredibly hard to find and often not very fashionable, but they are often extremely ill fitting meaning they end up in sizes either too small or way too big. A well made evening dress should always fit any body type nicely and make any woman feel beautiful - even a larger lady. It's important to find evening wear that suits your best features and hides those that aren't so great. Once you know what to look for, then the process becomes less complicated.
