Both partners having the same styling sense can be very redundant and boring for their relationship going forward. It is favorable for the other person to be either totally opposite or at least be different in their fashion choices. This will help combat the monotony between the two while making their relationship more upbeat and exciting. https://dapper.fashion/journal/2019/6/5/saving-the-environment monthly 0.5 2021-01-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c302db1ee1759e79272e761/1559770096230-FPUI01NVSRKQ0F4CZVI6/shutterstock_1083501086.jpg Journal - Saving the Environment Luxury fashion hottest buzzword right now is sustainability. Luxury groups and brands have established programs aimed at making the industry more environmentally aware and conscious. Sustainable luxury is the future. It is not an eco-friendly product seeking a premium image but instead, it is an alternative approach to saving the planet since we would be channeling our purchasing power to where we might do the least harm - by buying sustainable luxury goods. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c302db1ee1759e79272e761/1559770166665-V3GKPRJJTAJJVMCI4O8U/shutterstock_1403513723.jpg Journal - Saving the Environment “The luxury industry has a particular responsibility because it sets trends and is open to innovation.” - Kering Luxury Group. “ https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c302db1ee1759e79272e761/1559770143263-PIQW5R81ISHCUPFANEIJ/shutterstock_366585614.jpg Journal - Saving the Environment At first glance, the term sustainable luxury seems self-contradictory. After all, luxury often carries with it connotations of flamboyance and sometimes excessive use of resources whilst it is also associated with pleasure, individualism, and fashion. On the other hand sustainability is synonymous with ethics and restraint. However, if we return to the definition of luxury, we can see that sustainable products also share the same ‘essential’ qualities of luxury goods; they call for extraordinary creativity and design, they need to be made from exceptional materials, with good quality, and they place an importance on durability in the concept of fewer but better. Luxury goods have implicit sustainability built in it’s core, as they don’t go out of fashion and are life-long products. The Obama administration has stepped into the arena by enlisting beauty and fashion companies to join the American Business Act on Climate Pledge - a program focusing on reducing the industry’s carbon footprint. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c302db1ee1759e79272e761/1559770188708-8RKW6Y6GJV21ZMNSCC0A/shutterstock_114522619.jpg Journal - Saving the Environment The question that you are probably asking yourself right now is whether it is economically feasible for luxury brands to develop sustainable practices and use alternative, more environment conscious materials. Many designers think that it is a great opportunity for experimentation with realistic outcomes. There are so many options it’s unbelievable. https://dapper.fashion/journal/2019/6/6/worth-every-penny monthly 0.5 2023-06-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c302db1ee1759e79272e761/1559866994371-744YDO99GNH7SB49S0XW/shutterstock_736940371.jpg Journal - Worth Every Penny Luxury has always been a synonym for quality. The luxury apparel industry built their brands focusing primarily on using and offering the best materials for their products crafted to perfection by skilled craftsmen. So, when we pay a handsomely a higher price, it includes the unique artistry, designer’s time, brilliance, material and the impeccable quality of the product. People often equate cost and quality, which explains why luxury brands keep their prices on the higher end of the spectrum. When you pick up a Saint Laurent leather jacket, you are assured that you are investing in a unique piece crafted by artisanal experts creating a product made from the best of materials. Brands focus more on developing their identity. That’s what we call branding. Branding is the expression of the essential truth or value of an organization, product, or service. It is communication of characteristics, values, and attributes that depict the essence of the brand whilst telling its story. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c302db1ee1759e79272e761/1559866920695-7ZMY60N8QNYTLVDTD3AS/shutterstock_350823542.jpg Journal - Worth Every Penny https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c302db1ee1759e79272e761/1559866918566-K6460RE0C17KJYYZ8K7R/shutterstock_335400743.jpg Journal - Worth Every Penny https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c302db1ee1759e79272e761/1559867457644-HVGDSOYQSCDYTTDRAQ5L/shutterstock_264962954.jpg Journal - Worth Every Penny https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c302db1ee1759e79272e761/1559867122998-QULWXSK9NUFUEL6M4U5I/shutterstock_1062491147.jpg Journal - Worth Every Penny The biggest budget that luxury goods and services works on developing each and every day is marketing. Brands spend millions of dollars on fashion shows, celebrities, photographers, models, ads and ad placement in the right magazines. So, most of the money that what we pay for clothes goes to the department that builds the aspiration amongst consumers and generates the desire to be wearing, flaunting or simply shopping for those products. Mass-production is what Luxury avoids. Making 100 garments instead of 1,000, drives both the cost and the retail prices up. It is exclusive and unattainable, that what makes it desirable and the reason why customers are willing to pay steep prices for the products. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c302db1ee1759e79272e761/1559867146668-SP0E0C237LQVRAH6S339/shutterstock_1343770670.jpg Journal - Worth Every Penny https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c302db1ee1759e79272e761/1559867044397-YGLVQMI85PT0BPX4NLXA/shutterstock_491307448.jpg Journal - Worth Every Penny Brands focus more on developing their identity. That’s what we call branding. Branding is the expression of the essential truth or value of an organization, product, or service. It is communication of characteristics, values, and attributes that depict the essence of the brand whilst telling its story. When you buy a luxury product, a large part of it is the feeling you get when you purchase it: “Buy a normal watch and you will know what time it is; wear a Rolex and you feel like you own it.” So, what you’re buying besides the product but are much more invested in the feeling that comes with owning it. Robert Duffy, co-founder of Marc Jacobs International, sums it up perfectly in a New York magazine piece, “Luxury is something you don’t need, it’s something you want. The bag of potato chips I ate for lunch was a luxury.” https://dapper.fashion/journal/2019/6/6/fake-it-till-you-make-it monthly 0.5 2021-07-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c302db1ee1759e79272e761/1559877696364-ZGJ1FBS4JGAM0L983FQQ/570113_06F00_1000_002_100_0000_Light-removebg+%281%29.png Journal - Fake It 'till You Make It https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c302db1ee1759e79272e761/1559877097107-S3A4M0HGAO4ZPHN6O7YV/03_08_14_76_85_uk_cover_story_bulgari_t_tl_t_1_4.jpg Journal - Fake It 'till You Make It https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c302db1ee1759e79272e761/1559876474163-ITTQQU97MOAJIIAHIABG/Shot_04_093_R2.jpg Journal - Fake It 'till You Make It https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c302db1ee1759e79272e761/1559876597301-XCS55PZHY3P05Y4U5FQ6/tumblr_m9q5ub0QGy1rrns0oo1_1280.jpg Journal - Fake It 'till You Make It https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c302db1ee1759e79272e761/1559877213671-BVJURYMQH3ZR4HD3RLEY/marc-jacobs-Blue-Sea-MultiSilver-The-Editor-Leather-Tote.jpg Journal - Fake It 'till You Make It - Avoid Slouchy Handbags The sleeker and refined you want your personality to be, the more structured and sharp your ensembles should be, including your accessories.

But, in some, this results in internalized negative body images, and a state of mind in which individuals feel unhappy with their appearance.

This leads to chronic eating disorders and mental health issues, yet the fashion industry still continues to give out the products called “doll clothes” for young women. Society wants to see young adults who are full of health walking on the streets, not people with “jutting bones and no breasts or hips.” The problem is, our young adults try to copy the idealized and over-sexualized body images they see with fashion models. Fashion influences confidence and this obsession can be a source of stress, depression, or anxiety for adolescents who don’t have those body sizes or the money to purchase the clothes they think they need in order to look like those fashion models and to fit in with their peers. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c302db1ee1759e79272e761/1561154343348-RN6I8SWU1Y9RAI8F8854/shutterstock_394467577.jpg Journal - Teen Dreams Teenagers might be the most fashion-conscious people on the planet. Because they’re doing the hard work of forming their sense of self, what they wear becomes incredibly important, a negative body image issue can have a drastic impact on their daily life. Fashion is one of the few ways they have to show the world who they are—or who they want to be, it can also be a route to gaining social status, bonding with peers, and expressing beliefs and affiliations, that’s the good use that we are trying to do with fashion. Unfortunately, fashion industry is such a negative push on teenagers’ standard of beauty that it is now becoming an unsolved dilemma for our society. https://dapper.fashion/journal/2019/6/26/p3nxskjrst56g6vpwi9ywia7m66ce5 monthly 0.5 2023-08-31 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c302db1ee1759e79272e761/1561599738877-PR3VWQ56V9I39EA0PWN1/stock-photo-cropped-close-up-of-a-happy-woman-smiling-joyfully-wearing-pearl-necklace-copyspace-elegance-luxury-1026420316.jpg Journal - Accessorize to Personalize - Classic Vintage On the other hand, if you’re someone who is more on the prim and proper side and prefers to wear classic vintage clothes, then you should probably go for more sophisticated and feminine accessories.

A disturbing fact about this industry is that behind some of designer clothing are the sweat and blood of miserable workers. It is reported that the fashion industry outsources to developing countries to get more profit from cheap labor, and this trend has been increasing significantly. The clothes they produce are often sold for at least 10 times more. In one interview, a worker said his two days’ pay was deducted because he was absent one day to seek medication. Some also said they work under dim lighting without proper ventilation systems, which have caused them respiratory problems and headaches. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c302db1ee1759e79272e761/1566858497213-UBUJ66HE64KN2XDLLI7E/shutterstock_361596206.png Journal - Lamentable Employment In recent years, human rights activists have been at the forefront of exposing what workers go through in their workplaces. This is to ensure that employers who expose their employees to inhumane conditions are held accountable. In response, some factories have allowed their employees to form unions that they can use to bargain for higher wages and better working conditions. In the US, a worker is allowed to file a complaint with the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) if they believe their working conditions are unhealthy or unsafe. Federal regulations also allow an employee to refuse to work if a hazardous condition exists in the workplace, as long as this condition has been brought to the attention of the employer and the employer has not taken steps to remedy the situation https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c302db1ee1759e79272e761/1566858124967-YC8SV8IKWUHTUL5LLOGM/shutterstock_772799641.png Journal - Lamentable Employment Most of the clothes we wear are made by people who work in deplorable conditions. To keep production costs down to maximize profits, many businesses build their factories in foreign countries where wages are low, rules are loose, and worker rights are limited or non-existent.For instance, workers in sweatshops owned by leading designer labels work long hours but are underpaid. This is in complete disregard for the laws mandating a minimum wage or overtime pay. In these factories, even child labor laws are violated and one may find children being employed to carry out duties that are only fit for adults. https://dapper.fashion/journal/2019/7/30/controversial-advertising monthly 0.5 2022-03-31 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c302db1ee1759e79272e761/1565838824075-FY407F4KNSCDU70PXZGY/enhanced-buzz-orig-31358-1375616751-8_wdp.jpg Journal - Controversial Advertising Source: BuzzFeed https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c302db1ee1759e79272e761/1565838895650-YIRX4WPVV4591Y2PUEZ4/D-G-TGJ.01.jpg Journal - Controversial Advertising Source: DOLCE & GABBANA https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c302db1ee1759e79272e761/1565838656252-Y0D72S2BUKZACB3SBJTC/2009-10-14-blackface.jpg Journal - Controversial Advertising Source: HuffPost https://dapper.fashion/journal/2019/7/30/millionaires-dress-code monthly 0.5 2021-12-31 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c302db1ee1759e79272e761/1564799207517-39NZIZSM4LTB643YN2KH/shutterstock_254305060.png Journal - Millionaire’s Dress Code - Wristwatch Billionaires and millionaires are successful because they are time conscious.

This is because modern consumers are being bombarded by these kinds of stuff from certain high fashion brand collections that should know better. So what should designers do? Cultural appropriation may not stop soon but it is good to keep calling it out as some have been doing. This has made some designers more aware of the accusations and they have changed their ways. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c302db1ee1759e79272e761/1568136947430-RRJW92GATQOV1JD96X59/shutterstock_1164368116.png Journal - Cultural Appropriation In 2016, Gucci was in trouble for showing white models wearing the Sikh-style turbans, and in 2017, Vogue faced a backlash for a photo in which a model by the name Kloss Karlie was seen dressed as a geisha. Geisha are Japanese women who entertain people by performing the Japanese classical traditions of art, singing, and dance and are uniquely set apart by their oshiroi makeup and wearing of kimono https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c302db1ee1759e79272e761/1568137043294-XABYK0YVTFZCHR3FDJSK/shutterstock_712766725.png Journal - Cultural Appropriation There's a thin line between what is cultural appropriation and appreciation and the number of times the fashion industry has collectively gotten it right is massively outweighed by the times it has gotten it wrong. There are many reasons that this happens. It may be because the designers are uneducated about this kind of subject or there is a misunderstanding during the inspiration process. For example, in 2011, Urban Outfitters issued Navajo-themed items which made headlines because they caused some disquiet in the Navajo Nation. In 2015, Isabel Marant, a French designer was accused of copying the traditional costume of the Mixe people, an indigenous Mexican community. https://dapper.fashion/journal/2020/5/15/not-kidding-kids-in-the-industry-of-chic monthly 0.5 2022-05-31 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c302db1ee1759e79272e761/1569465791237-WRWW22FT6WFU15STBX37/shutterstock_1025841379.png Journal - Not Kidding - Child models From Burberry to Louis Vuitton, the children’s line by these luxury brands has incorporated children into their ad campaigns over time.

Fur was taboo. Fur was unacceptable. Fur was viewed as ethically wrong. And unfortunately, times have changed, they have changed in the wrong directions. Fur has crept back into fashion but spared of the outcry of controversy. In the autumn/winter 2013 runway collections alone, according to British Vogue, nearly 70 per cent of fashion designers used fur. The Head of International Marketing for Saga Furs, one of the major fur manufacturers worldwide, claims this is "almost the golden age in fur". https://dapper.fashion/journal/2019/11/13/wasteful-consumerism monthly 0.5 2022-08-31 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c302db1ee1759e79272e761/1573696398666-2C7YFF6ZHSRQGDX0DDHF/shutterstock_1050756992.jpg Journal - Wasteful Consumerism The fast fashion industry focuses on speed and low costs in order to deliver frequent new collections inspired by catwalk looks or celebrity styles. But it is particularly bad for the environment, as pressure to reduce cost and the time it takes to get a product from design to shop floor means that environmental corners are more likely to be cut. Criticisms of fast fashion include its negative environmental impact, water pollution, the use of toxic chemicals and increasing levels of textile waste. Vibrant colors, prints, and fabric finishes are appealing features of fashion garments, but many of these are achieved with toxic chemicals. Textile dyeing is the second largest polluter of clean water globally, after agriculture. Greenpeace’s recent Detox campaign has been instrumental in pressuring fashion brands to act to remove toxic chemicals from their supply chains. Many of these are banned or strictly regulated in various countries because they are toxic, bio-accumulative, disruptive to hormones and carcinogenic. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c302db1ee1759e79272e761/1573696559731-YMWMEDK5H6UV12JTWA27/shutterstock_1428885395.jpg Journal - Wasteful Consumerism https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c302db1ee1759e79272e761/1573696833775-D0K2F2LGQN0IKLESV8X2/shutterstock_1271034247.jpg Journal - Wasteful Consumerism Textile production is one of the most polluting industries, producing 1.2 billion tons of CO2 equivalent per year, which is more emissions than international flights and maritime shipping. Over 60% of textiles are used in the clothing industry and a large proportion of clothing manufacturing occurs in China and India, countries which rely on coal-fueled power plants, increasing the footprint of each garment. It has been stated that around 5% of total global emissions come from the fashion industry. So, can consumers reduce the environmental cost of fast fashion when out shopping? Choosing an eco-friendly fabric is complex as there are pros and cons to all fiber types. Garments that are labeled as being made from natural fibers are not necessarily better than synthetic, as fiber choice is only one part of a complex picture. Fibers still have to be spun, knitted or woven, dyed, finished, sewn and transported, all of which have different environmental impacts. https://dapper.fashion/journal/2019/12/11/sibling-rivalry monthly 0.5 2020-08-31 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c302db1ee1759e79272e761/1576112917941-NLRD89R2QUNOW3ZORTI3/shutterstock_1177939771.png Journal - Sibling Rivalry - Special Occasions Special occasions always demand outfits that make a statement and whether you are young, old or somewhere in the middle, you give in to the fashion mantra either way!
