A letter to all lovers of fashion and beauty
There’s a certain comfort when you’ve reached a point of confidence in your identity—where you feel at ease with your attributes and character, which then manifests with the way you carry and present yourself. It becomes an aura of such positivity and it also becomes a part of you that is suddenly so precious.
Having to realize who you truly are in such a vast world can be daunting but a journey each of us have to go through—a rite of passage if we must say. And in this time and culture we are in, fashion has also become a companion to those who have embraced themselves and to those who are still searching for their identity.
Beyond the seams
Fashion has always been more than the style and trends. It transcends minute details as it becomes a walking form of art for almost everyone. Just like how art is viewed subjectively, fashion moves the same way with its love for diversity and individuality. It’s how we get to see new forms of genres with people’s unique creativity from around the world—creating a safe space of exploration for all.
A misconception of it though is the pressure to look stylish. One must remember that we are only here to aid you through the world of fashion, but it is you who can breathe life into these clothes. Your distinct creativity and personality is what gives such pieces a new persona. So from a fashion enthusiast to another, throw away all apprehensions of always staying on-trend and instead, form your own codes that no one else can replicate.
Fresh perspectives
It also brings us to the question, what does it mean to be stylish? Does one have to follow every trend or depend on the next style in line? These are questions that are valid, but they can be detrimental for many as the industry moves to different genres so quickly. It’s also why there is no specific look in the fashion world—everyone moves in their own style with such comfort and confidence. Their clothes are simply a representation of what they built over the years and the joy a garment can give to them.
A shift of perspective is healthy once you view the fashion world as a celebration of everyone. It became a community that built a stigma of love and support everyone carries with them. Each person gets to become who they are meant to be and they can display it with such positivity—personalities radiating in their own light.
Navigating your way through a diverse world might get overwhelming and a majority had a similar experience. Countless trends are at our feet, waiting to be tried only to be tossed when a fresh one comes in. With that, it’s best to trust your creativity despite the quick turnovers in fashion because it is what gives the community that unique identity. To put it simply, the merit of fashion is you.
