We express our taste and personality through the clothes we wear, how we style our hair, and how we groom ourselves. Style is individual, and it can be eternal, appealing to people throughout centuries. Fashion today means the international industry of clothing designers, manufacturers, retailers and influencers who present styles of clothing we can choose to wear—or not. From simple loincloths, which are still worn by indigenous people in the Amazon in South America and highlands of tropical Papua New Guinea, to the latest fashions on the runway at Fashion Weeks in Paris, London, Milan and New York, clothing represents personal taste and practical needs—and the way we see ourselves. Clothing can conceal and it can reveal. This book explores fashion as an art form that combines technology, artistry and imagination. It can tell stories that we want to hear or show us new visions that stir our imagination.
