1.) What are your thoughts on this quote?

Well I actually found this quote funny lolz..😛 but ..I think its suppose to be dark humor.

2.) Do you think this quote is true?

Well it really depends cuz the quote is basically saying that fashion is ugly, and NOT ALL fashion is ugly, so it depends what the fashion is and the way you carry it.

3.) Your take on Fashion? (Define fashion in your own way)

Well in short, I think fashion is style, but it's not everyone's style. It's also wht some ppls say is "in."

4.) Talk about fashion and you.

I dun really follow whts "in" but I dun like to be the odd one out, so ..yah..like I wear some things which are in fashion but only the things I like. If I don't like something, im not gonna wear it juz cuz its in fashion.

I love the quote! so true and funny!

1.) What are your thoughts on this quote?
I think this quote is mostly true because hiding your true self behind the tag 'Fashion' is wrong to oneself. Fashion kills originality.

2.) Do you think this quote is true?
I think it is 80% true. I find it 20% false cause then again everyone has their personal chioce and so it is their opinion.

3.) Your take on Fashion? (Define fashion in your own way)
I think Fashion is something that you are confortable in. It makes you look good without making you look cheap or anything. Fashion sould be your personal choice and should reflect who you are and allows you to make a statement for yourself.

4.) Talk about fashion and you.
Fashion for me is something that i am comfortable in as well as it doesn't make me conscious or awkward.

1.) What are your thoughts on this quote?

I'd say its utter nonsense! Its got humor in it.

2.) Do you think this quote is true?

Depends on the fashion... You can't exactly say that soemthing thats in the fashion which looks good IS ugly now can you?

3.) Your take on Fashion? (Define fashion in your own way)

Fashion according to me is the latest style... Its something like what people say is good for the current time.

4.) Talk about fashion and you.

Me and Fashion? Please, that makes me laugh. I do like to keep in time with fashion which I normally do, but at times, the fashion sometimes gets too unlikely for my taste so I carry on wearing my tomboy clothes. To me it ain't a big difference but I still don't want to be the odd one out in fashion.

1.) What are your thoughts on this quote?
~Well I think through this quote the person is trying to say that by using fashion...ppl sumtimez try to hide ugliness that they have...buh i am really not sure what the person is saying

2.) Do you think this quote is true?
~ I dont think so...ppl use fashion to add to their beauty...and fashion usually reflects what the person is...like if they wear bright colors u may think they r a bubly type a person.....black (gothic) meaning they are the depressed type and so on

3.) Your take on Fashion? (Define fashion in your own way)
~ Fashion is a way of other expressing their taste on color clothes and extra accesorioes they add
4.) Talk about fashion and you.
~ Well for me fashion is anythin I am comfortable in....i agree i dont spend 100z dollarz on expensive outfits buh i do make an effort to by nice clothes that have cute designes and all the colors that i wear match one another

Fashion is merely a form of ugliness so unbearable that we are compelled to alter it every six months


1.) What are your thoughts on this quote?

Well, some fashions are so ridiculous, that before it even hits 6 months, the stock has to be removed from the stores... 😆 😆

2.) Do you think this quote is true?

Naaah! 😉

3.) Your take on Fashion? (Define fashion in your own way)

The way we dress – and in particular the way women dress – is a sign of who we are and how we wish to portray ourselves to the world. Fashion sense should convey the attractiveness of the person while retaining dignity.

4.) Talk about fashion and you.

Ummm... jeans and a clean shirt... need I say more?!?
Ok, I am extremely opposed to following fashion blindly. I'll end up looking like an under-decorated christmas tree... out in the cold!!!
When it comes to dressing up, I love accesories as much as the next chic. Handbags, jewellry and shoes really are my weakness, but at the end of the day I wear what I am most comfortable in and only what I am proud of being seen in. I don't believe in rushing out and buying whats being advertised as the latest fashions, but rather what suits me and flatters me.

1.) What are your thoughts on this quote?

Nice very nice and very true too!

2.) Do you think this quote is true?

Absolutely

3.) Your take on Fashion? (Define fashion in your own way)

Fashion for me isnt whats the latest and what everyone else is wearing these days.I believe fashion is HOW you wear something and in that EVERYONE has their own style.

4.) Talk about fashion and you.

I'm not a fashion freak,I dont buy what everyone else is wearing just because its the latest thing.If I like something I buy it,I dont care if its "in" or "out".Even though I have some really nice and expensive clothes,they just stay in my wardrobe.Thats because they are a bit too nice and can only be worn on special occasions or parties,since I dont go out that much I dont get a chance to wear them.The only time when I do go out is to go to uni.But even there I wear the some old plain clothes everyday,because I dont want people to think I'm a big show off.Besides I go uni to learn not to do fashion.But when I'm bored I wear some of my best clothes and do a lil fashion show of my own 😆

1.) What are your thoughts on this quote?

To be frank..i find it funny!😆

2.) Do you think this quote is true?

In a way it is...u don't wnna wear something that is in fashion which will make u look ugly!🤢

3.) Your take on Fashion? (Define fashion in your own way)

I think fashion is Comfort. You should not wear something is in fashion n makes u uncomfortable..but u should wear something which is also in fashion but makes u comfortable n makes u feel good!

4.) Talk about fashion and you.

Im a fashion person...if u say that fashion is clothes from American Eagle, Aeropostale, Abrecombie & Hitch, or Holister...then yes...i wear only those but cheaper ones!😳...but i dont wear a pair of jeans which is too tight for me n makes me look like i had hard time putting them on(trust me guys, in US u will find people who do that, most of the time), i wont put on a flip-flop which are very hard n not soft as they are suppose to be because they make my feet hurt!..i think they make most of peoples feet hurt😕


In short...Fashion is Comfort...wear what is in fashion that makes u feel comfortable
