Fashion is driven by trends...

Posted by Gerald J. Sherman on July 12, 2010 at 7:24pm in NEW TO FASHION INDUSTRY QUESTIONS
Fashion is driven by trends...for example -- "When celebrities like James Brown, Elvis Presley, and Cher were seen wearing bell-bottom pants, it soon became a trend in the early 1960s. The trend waned in 70's, but came back in the late 1990's following media coverage of celebrities wearing mondern-day bell bottoms. In early 2007, Jennifer Lopez was seen wearing a pair of second-skin bell bottoms, and Linsay Lohan, Jessic Simpson and Geri Haliwell were all reported by a number of fashion magazines to be seen wearing bell-bottom jeans."(Excerpts from: Fashion Public Relations, Gerald J. Sherman & Sar S. Perlman, Fairchild Books, Division of Conde Nast Publications, (2010) So by adding another dimension to the topic,, can we say that, 'trends' are the driving force of fashion? gjs
