This is an article I read about today titled, "Fashion sector can enormously stimulate economy in Latin America." Although it quotes the headline about Latin America, I believe that the same goes for the rest of the world. The "power" of culture will always be around everywhere you go whether that place may be luxurious or in poverty. The influence of fashion is strong like the torch in the olympics, never dies out. Lala Deheinzelin, a specialist on this topic and also a member of the advisory committee of IN-MOD, the Instituto Nacional de Moda e Design, affiliated with the São Paulo Fashion Week says "A creative economy is based on three factors: culture, creativity and knowledge." This is absolutely correct and without one of the three, the bond would be broken. They create a chain of events which eventually leads to the power of culture, the influence and impact it gives on one's economy. And in the economy it includes the society/community, the market place which leads to sales/consumerism, teenage targets, and families that barely pass by every month but just love to dress up nice! In fashion, culture is not something that takes long to happen or change. It can impact you in just one day. For example, one day you may be walking on the streets or whatever and notice someone your age or so rocking a new trend or a style you never seen before but seem to be attracted to, BOOM, there you go, a new fashion and interest. Creativity and knowledge are mostly and heavily associated with the market place and those who determine their targets so they can make their productions in relation to the latest fashion culture. "Fashion is not only clothing: it is identity, attitude and socio-cultural communication." As written in the article, this quote is as real as it gets. I've been saying this throughout the months I been writing this blog because it is the truth. The fashion culture is similar to a toy that you can pick up when it's new and throw away when it's old to yet, find and purchase a new one. However, unlike a toy, it will always be there. Fashion is apart of one's self and as real as skin because it is one. It does not only enhance your image and appearance, but it describes who you are and what you are trying to express. What I am really trying to say is that, fashion speaks in a way you want it to because you pick it.
