Why Fashion Is Going Out of Fashion

7 de oct. de 2021
The latest fashion trend is virtual clothing. Digital fashion apps are taking over the market, customers “wear” digital clothing through augmented reality and digitally altered photos on various social networks. The accelerator for this new development was the lockdown from the coronavirus pandemic, which forced people indoors, no need to dress up with no places to go. The creators of these virtual clothing stores stand by the statement: “The traditional fashion industry pollutes the planet, but we do not.” We have been purchasing clothing on a whim, wearing it for one evening and then disposing of it. With this new way of shopping, we need only our pajamas as we sit in front of our screens, creating our digitally immersive virtual fashion experiences made solely out of pixels. Is fashion going out of fashion? Fashion generally is a concept. In the past, it had a language of its own and people were judged and categorized by their apparel. Today, it is no longer the case. Fashion is going out of fashion. We need to dress only for convenience and comfort. We should thus not be judged by our choice of clothes or hairstyle. I believe that none of it should matter, “I sit here before you as if I am naked.” By this, we will practically look at a person’s inner self, hear and feel the person, see their personality, their warm heart instead, and not be concerned with appearances. Nevertheless, we still see how purchasing a gift for another elevates their mood. This, too, is necessary within reason. But still, one way or another, we will leave all this behind. We see changes with the new generation. In the past, fashion was about status. Today, it has lost its meaning. We will come to seek comfort in practical things suitable for our convenience. We will value a person for who they are and not because of their apparel, appearances, or their possessions, and we will reach this state internally.
