Fashion is about wearing clothes and accessories that reflect your personality, creativity and individuality. It is also about expressing your heritage, culture, and societal influences. Fashion is a global business, employing millions of people worldwide. Fashion influences us all, whether we realize it or not. Judges wear robes, military personnel wear uniforms, and brides wear white dresses. We are influenced by celebrities, musicians, political figures, and royalty, all of which have had an effect on what people choose to wear in everyday life. Newspapers and magazines report on the latest styles of clothing. We all see images of what others are wearing in the media, and consciously or not, we tend to imitate these trends.

It is believed that changes in fashion are a reaction to societal change, but it has also been suggested that the fashion industry promotes shifts in clothing trends for financial gain, thereby encouraging materialistic consumerism. However, there is also evidence that suggests that changes in fashion are driven by internal taste mechanisms that are independent of commercial interests.

A fashionable person is an individual who regularly follows trends and styles in a society, and whose tastes are reflected in their outfit choices. Choosing clothes that are stylish, well-fitting and comfortable can boost confidence and self-esteem and help individuals feel more positive about their appearance. Fashion can also serve as a form of cultural expression, reflecting traditions and values, as well as a way for people to connect with their heritage or express solidarity with a specific group.
