Fashion is many things to many people
To most its a very personal reflection of how we see ourselves, it gives a quick identity without us ever needing to speak.
It is one of the most defining ways in which somebody will judge you.
With this in mind its easy to see why clothes shops are the biggest retailer on our streets. Millions of pounds poured into items that we believe will get us that dream job, or that good-looking stranger, or just make us feel good about ourselves. I'm sure we have all bought something for a reason more than it will simply keep me warm!
It would be very naive to still believe in this society that we shouldn't judge by appearances, as most TV adverts will tell you. In fact most people make a conscious decision about a person they have just met within the first 10 seconds of meeting them. And that judgement very rarely changes.
So the world of fashion is changing, once a simple idea or dare I say it, hobby, has become sociological tool with which we get through life by using. And with stores like 'Primemark' selling clothes a bottom prices: it is no longer acceptable not be dressed in the latest high-end fashion for the reason of cost.
This is why I believe that fashion is no longer a luxury
it is necessity.
So is it so wrong to judge a book by its cover?
