Fashion to Me

My love for fashion is more lke a passion. I don't want to be in this huge industry for the fun. It's more so for the feeling. I know it's the feeling because when im in fabric stores I know I can stay there forever.

"Fashion is not something that exist in dresses only. Fashion is in the sky, in the streets, fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening"- CoCo Chanel

Fashion to me is like a form of art. I use it for its self expression. Fashion can tell strangers what mood your in without you even expressing yourself, it can tell where your from without showing your licence plates, fashion can tell your occupation it can even show your age.

A fashion designer and photographer named Cecil Beaton once said,"Be daring, be diffrent, be impractical, be anything that will assert integrity of purpose and imaginative vision against the play-it-safers, the creatures of the commonplace, the slaves of the ordinary."

And thats what I plan to do, "Thrive past the top keep racing after the finish and be the above & Beyond." - Akili C.
