Fashion Pilgrimage

CostumeInstitute

It seems to be the resident popular notion amongst the average American in recent years to shun fashion. Clothing as functional wear seems to be commonly accepted and yet “fashion” is regarded as frivolous and vacuous.  Comfort reigns.

I would gladly like to dispel this notion, however would fashion retain its singularity and inherent extraordinary place in the world if it wasn’t for its lack of normalcy?  I think not. Therefore, I will accept this idea, albeit begrudgingly.

Be extraordinary.

We must overcome the notion that we must be regular… it robs you of the chance to be extraordinary and leads you to the mediocre.
