Era of Fashion

An Era of vogue Webster vocabulary states that fashion is The make or form of something. The prevailing style during a circumstance condemnation. Person each(prenominal)y, I believe fashion is not Just what you wear down but a state of mind. I once read a quote by Coco Channel that read, Be daring, be different, be impractical, be anything that will assert integrity of purpose and imaginative flock against the play-it-safer, the creatures of the commonplace the slaves of the ordinary. This to me said it all. soulal manner is about learning the true o and the assertion that you want to make on that particular day, weather that statement is inconsiderate or casual in sweat pants and a clear T. Fashion is not Just what we see e veryday in magazines. Fashion is what you make it. During the pre asss through the early to mid-asss fashion trends such as the miniskirt skirt, maxi skirt, mini put, the halter neck cat dress, flared trousers, empire dresses, higher(prenominal) w aist banana sears, bell bottoms, army Jackets and Jumpsuits were all the rage.Two of the more intimately known flock I believed to comprise the asss well was, Affray Facet, who cocked the plumed hairstyle and asss style well for the ladies and Elvis Presley who was well known for always aspect amazing in Jumpsuits showed the boys exactly how to make an outfit look good. In the photos I have chosen to use you will see my Grandparents, my Uncle, my come and my father. My Grandparents and Uncle have always lived in Tucson, Az as for my stupefy for most of her carriage has lived in Tucson, except with a two year modulate from her magazine spent in California.As for my father he was born and raise in capital of the Bahamas, Bahamas until his college years when he moved to Tucson. The pictures were not taken for a particular reason different than to remember the time my father went to the fancy man Air battle array and the time my mother spent visiting cheer Island. The tren ds in both hair style and garments are shown. For instance my mother in the black and white photograph shows Just how being hip to(predicate) in that time of age would have been represented, which was shown by the mini dress and having hair as oversize as you could get it to go. The types of clothing shown in my pictures are more on the casual side of everyday life in the U.S. Back in the asss. Because fashion has always reflected its moment in history one could say that clothes mocked their environment. More designers were finally acquire the chance to travel. This gave them a chance to see other nations. Viewing other nations meant new colors, textures, materials and ideas. There was now more to fashion than the same doddering boring prints. What is special about the asss clothing to me are the patterns and the colors. The asss was bold and thusly the colors and shapes of the garments were bigger than life. Personally, it seems to me that living in the asss meant that one coul d not be shyThis era in time was such a big influence on the world and trends can still be seen in present day. For example, That asss Show, puts forth a great understanding of the prints, textures, and all round style of the asss. Another show that from time to time will represent the asss is The Rachel Zoe Project. Rachel Zoe is a fashion stylist, who herself every so often will show high wasted pants, big earrings, big hair, patterns, and styles from the asss. All in all I believe that the seventies was an amazing and inspiring era. QUESTIONS 1 .
