Fashion is the attitude.

Do you also go with the fashion or it is the attitude that you wear? I feel that a person can be fashionable by being not just trendy, but by carrying off well, whatever he or she wears. Isn't it?

I agree with you Sanju. Being fashionable depends on how well you carry yourself. I do go with what is in fashion but i also have my own way of getting dressed without being trendy and fashionable. Sometimes i like being simple and i know i can carry myself well.

I agree with you guys, I think "fashion" has to do more with region, age and self esteem. By region, I mean the part of world and the people who live there. Now this has to do more with culture and environmental conditions that go along way in influencing the kind of fashion and trends in each season.

By age, it's most likely that the younger a person - the more likely they are to be influenced by their age mates, current trend and what is cool. Just the same way that older people tend to settle with a fashion style that seem more appropriate and comfortable.

And then there is the self esteem part. People with a higher level of self esteem will dress up any how and any way they like without giving much thought to what others will think of them unlike with people with low self esteem.

I set my own fashion. I have never been one to follow the herd because you never know when someone is planning on culling the herd. You are your own fashion statement.

I think fashion is knowing what works for you. It is what makes you comfortable in your skin. So often we see people buying and wearing stuff irrespective of whether it suits them or not, all in the name of fashion. Wearing what suits you and carrying it off like its meant for you, that's fashion for me
