With special attention to decadism, Breward overviews the changes in fashion trends in the beginning of the twentieth century (184-185). Here, decades are characterized not only by specific preferences in clothing, but also by cultural and social features of the time. In other words, fashion is determined by sociocultural movements. The author highlights the importance of fashion’s temporality in organizing the chronology of the history of fashion. Particularly with this art, time frames may be easily outlined by months, years, or decades with high degree of accuracy. Therefore, fashion is described as a “cultural clock”, which is unconnected ...

Bartram states that their music is conducted both vocally and with instruments. He is not ...

A person’s cultural beliefs and personality can well be defined through their type of dressing code. In fact, numerous cultural studies conducted to establish the relationship between dressing code and societal principles have revealed a keen association between these two aspects.

Fairy tales and folklores are nothing but the reflections of the society. Authors and artists depict the world through their lens to highlight social elements. The Company of Wolves by Angela Carter is a fairy tale built on the theme of the Little Red Riding Hood.

In an interesting way she has shown what a feminist means, as it brings harmony and order into an otherwise sexist and chaotic society. Carter’s Company of Wolves might not ...

In my opinion, a fashion buyer is someone who works in the retail industry. It is also in my understanding that you do not need to be a graduate of any fashion-related course to become one.

Another thing that a fashion buyer must have is instinct, which I think will only be developed thru experience and over time. And one ...
