Define: fashion (noun. FAsh-uh n)

"A good design can create form and ideas that haven't been there before." --Zac Posen

Fashion is my boyfriend.

It amazes me of how much power and control Fashion has over the world without being domineering or over-bearing. We give fashion so much say-so in our lives and trust that they make the right descisions for us. It is bigger than political matters and trivial matters alike, because they come and go ..fashion is the pulse in which we can all count on.

This forever changing force is the most elite form of art because it constantly demands designers, models, photographers, and stylists to be on their toes and create even better than their last work. It can be the most simple, tailored piece to the most outlandish Avant Garde creation. Designers know their niche and know their world in which their designs will revel.

Fashion is all of us..from the clothes that we decide to drape on our frames, to express ourselves and align with our various colorful lifestyles. Everyone uses fashion dfferently. We see it as a means to showcase what is going on in our minds and the way we view certain situations that we are put in. Fashion is honestly the thread that binds us together..it has the power to put us in categories, and take us out of them simutaneously. It is who we were, who we are, and who we want to be someday.

I love, praise, and respect Fashion.
