The Influence of Fashion on People

The Influence of Fashion on People

Everyday, you’re thinking ‘Why cant I just be the most perfect human

being in the world?’ If you have a wonky nose or you want larger lips

you can just ask a surgeon to try and perform miracles to change you.

It sounds so straightforward. You don’t need to go on holiday anymore

to get a tan. You can go under a sun bed and shrivel up like a raisin

or you could apply brown paint to your body. Fashion is a big part of

all our lives. Why, today are we being pressurised in trying to make

ourselves perfect and more beautiful?

Not everyone’s perfect. Some people would say the perfect person would

have blonde hair, blue eyes, slim with a lovely tan. People would say

this because they consider this type of person to be very attractive.

On the other hand everyone has a different perfect person in their

mind because it’s their own view.

One thing that has become fashionable for woman is to have cosmetic

surgery, to make you feel better about yourself, or to make features

on your body look more attractive. People have all different kinds of

surgery such as nose jobs, liposuctions, face-lifts, breast

enlargements or reductions. Cosmetic surgery is becoming more popular

every day. Even men are going under the knife as well. Some people say

that it makes you look false and doesn’t look real but I think if you

have had an accident and something really horrific has happened to

your body or face, I think that it is acceptable because the surgery

would be for a totally different reason. However, many people say that

it is carried out to correct a feature that has been affecting you for

ages and is done so that ...

...h different styles. For example Goths, punks, surfing clothes,

urban clothes and hippy chic’s. If it wasn’t for clothes, we would all

be standing here naked.

Overall, fashion can be fun, exciting and safe. On the other hand, it

can provide thousands of people with employment. Fashion is just a

money making system, which is quite easy to get in to. We should

always be conscious of the future risks we could be getting ourselves

in to because of the health issues involved, trying to look

superficial and too much peer pressure, which could make you shallow

and self absorbed.

You can be fashionable however you want. It’s your own ideas and

personality of how you would like to be. We all have are own style but

most of us are all pressurised by advertisements, celebrities etc. So

we should be confident of who we are.
