Making of Fashion

When dealing with fashion there are many things that relate to the topic. Body art, piercings, makeup, hairstyles, clothes, and jewelry, etc. all deal with fashion. Four major fashion capitals in the world are established in NewYork, Milan, Paris, and London. Fashion journalism plays the most important role when it comes to fashion and it also plays a role in media. Media is used to promote fashion in many different ways. Throughout the early 20th century, practically all high fashion originated in Paris and London. Around the start of the 20th century fashion style magazines began to include photographs and become even more influential. In the fashion industry there are three main types of fashion, the different types include: Haute Couture, Mass Market, and Ready to wear. Haute Couture deals more with high-quality, expensive fabric. Haute Couture usually is not worn a lot and makes little direct profit for the fashion houses, but is important for prestige and publicity. Mass Market fashion is what most fashion industries mostly rely on. The mass market caters for a wide range of customers, producing ready-to-wear garments using trends set by the famous names in fashion. Last but not least there is Ready to Wear fashion. Ready to wear clothes are a cross between haute couture and mass market. Ready to wear collections are usually presented by fashion houses each season during fashion week. People dont make ready to wear fashion for individuals it normally is just for show and a specific person. So, I guess you can say majority of people today are sporting Mass Market fashion but its nothing wrong with it if you know how to own what you wear and know what fits you!
