Cultural and Social Influence

Fashion is that lingua franca that crosses national and age-bound walls with cultural and social expressions embedded within it. At its best, fashion remains the perpetual representation of the ever-changing images of human identity susceptible to influences from different cultures and societies. Analyzing the intricacy that goes into the making of this industry, this essay dissects points of conjunction for cultures, societies, and styles.

Cultural Significance

1.Tradition Gowns: Traditions form a base of fashion. The most modern designs, like kimono in Japan, the Indian sari, and African dashiki, draw all characteristics from classic gown.
2. Globalization: When different cultures are being brought together, then fashion emerges as fusion by all kinds of traditions.
3. Subcultures: Punk, hip-hop, goth are just some examples of art, music, and style movements that generate non-conventional styles.
4. Celebrity Culture: Audrey Hepburn, Marilyn Monroe, or Beyoncé; these are but a few examples of how icons serve as ambassadors to millions on matters of style.
