Fashion, a general term for the style and custom prevalent at a given time, in its most common usage refers to costume or clothing style. The more technical term, costume, has become so linked in the public eye with the term "fashion" that the more general term "costume" has in popular use mostly been relegated to special senses like fancy dress or masquerade wear, while the term "fashion" means clothing generally, and the study of it. This linguistic switch is due to the fashion plates which were produced during the Industrial Revolution, showing the latest designs. For a broad cross-cultural look at clothing and its place in society, refer to the entries for clothing, costume and fabrics. The remainder of this article deals with clothing fashions in the Western world. From Wikipedia under the

From Google Blog Search: "Fashion" Fashion refers to styles of dress (but can also include cuisine, literature, art, architecture, and general comportment) that are popular in a culture at any given time. Such styles may change quickly, and "fashion" in the more colloquial sense refers to the latest version of these styles. Inherent in the term is the idea that the mode will change more quickly than the culture as a whole. This theme article is a stub. You can help Wikiquote by expanding it.Quotes

Asked by tazmaniandevil923 - Fri Aug 24 14:41:37 2007 - - 5 Answers - 12 Comments A. Yes, I love fashion too. My answer will probably help you the most. go to www.i-dressup.com. You take a "model", and get to choose a collection from various deisgners such as Christian Dior, Zac Posen, Ralph Lauren, John Galliano, Versace, Fendi, and even some couture collections, such as John Galliano/Dior, and Karl Lagerfeld/Chanel. Good luck! That's www.i-dressup.com Answered by jmm10294 - Tue Aug 28 11:27:07 2007 I am doing a fashion project and was wondering, to get a head start, what would i have to include? Q. The course is about fashion and the project is called "How do you see fashion". Hope this helps you answer. I would like what sort of things you need to include, my mum says you might have to include cut outs from magazines and your own designs. Is this right? What other things? Asked by Fashioncrazy94 - Wed Apr 7 12:34:49 2010 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments A. I would certainly show things that have inspired your style, and fashion itself. Cutouts from magazines, statement pieces, accessories, models, and designers. Architecture, volume, and prints also play a very important role in the industry. Perhaps draw some sketches of your own designs, as well. :) Also, I would consider talking about how fashion can be a form of wearable art, and serves as a way to show one's self expression. With some research, you should be able to find lots of information and opinions on this particular view. I personally see fashion as a way to express myself and outwardly show my personality. For me it is simply another type of art, and should be treated with the same respect and admiration as theater or… [cont.] Answered by bittybubbles2 - Wed Apr 7 12:43:55 2010 What do fashion designers or custume designers need to do their work?
Q. Because i have to research what fashion or costume designers will buy from a shop to make a dress or whatever. what materials would they need, like the different types of cloth, needles, threads. Please tell what more do they need? Asked by BabymaH - Mon Jan 14 05:29:03 2008 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments A. In shop work we have two types of supplies, on hand non job specific and supplies purchased specifically for a particular job. On hand non job specific supplies include pins, needles, threads, zippers in many colours and lengths, hooks and eyes, basic buttons, interfacings in all weights, china silk for linings, and cotton muslin for making test garments to fine tune design and fit. These are often purchased from warehouses or wholesalers in large lots. I buy rolls of interfacings and linings, never two yards here or three yards there...I always buy a whole roll. For thread I buy long staple polyester on 5000 meter cones, it cheaper to buy in large quantities. Pins come in one pound boxes, stainless steel longs, also known as "dorcas [cont.] Answered by Linda S Bye! gone for now. - Mon Jan 14 08:53:48 2008 From Yahoo Answer Search: "Fashion" |
