Fashion is a dynamic term that encapsulates the design, manufacturing, marketing, and consumption of apparel and accessories, influenced by cultural, social, and economic factors and the prevailing styles and trends in clothing, accessories, and overall looks of a particular time.
In comparison, fashion styles are particular ways of dressing that belong to past subcultures and their aesthetic origins.
Originating from the Latin word ‘Facere,’ which means ‘to make,’ Fashion describes the manufacturing, mixing, and wearing of outfits adorned with specific cultural aesthetics, patterns, motifs, shapes, and cuts.
These outfits allow people to showcase their group belonging, values, beliefs, and ways of life.
