It’s not static nor exclusive to what happens in its environment and a clear demonstration can be sought through history, not only in what concerns to design and business structure, but also to the involvement of its position in the daily life.
The first transformation was made by Charles F. Worth. He was the first of many to make an important development in fashion as it was: he took the first step towards Haute Couture as a business, changing the usual interaction between client and coutourier of his era. For the first time, clients of high society were approaching the coutourier, they weren’t pushed by him to buy dresses but they pulled him to assist them.

Growing up, I was always mad at fashion. I was mad at it because I saw girls as young as seven years old being shamed about their bodies. Third graders would go on diets and admire photos of celebrities which are clearly over-photoshopped. I was mad at an industry which suggests that painfully thin and flawlessly beautiful is the only acceptable way to be. However, middle school changed everything, as I can remember, I spent the whole summer nights watching different fashion shows, from Alexander McQueen to Zac Posen.

The movement that I decided to work with is Postmodernism in Fashion .In the following essay I will be analyzing the styles, characteristics and examples. Postmodernism basically means to the blending of styles, ideas, materials, and so forth in a way that breaks guidelines or set principles in the Art field. On account of form this could mean to a blending of prints or textures in many ways. It could also mean putting together and mixing styles altogether. I would say that male/female unique apparel would likewise fall into the class of postmodernism.
Fashion, or rather the fashion industry, is ageist, sexist, racist, fattist and fascist, but only in so far as today’s society is. This industry is merely an extension of capitalism, and as such its only concern is generating as much profit as possible. Trying to include and represent all different types of people is very low on its priority list, so it continues to perpetuate harmful societal patterns, be it on purpose or not. The most blatant case of sexism in fashion is that women in this industry are by and large models, while the more powerful and influential positions of designers, managers and directors are usually taken by men.
Fashion never remains the same and with the advancements in technology fashion has become even more wavering. Fashion is highly influenced from the social, technological and economical changes. A series of events that replace current societal patterns with the

In spite of being originated in the 17th century Baroque fashion has made a very strong comeback in the fashion realm. The Baroque period was all about exuberance drama and grandeur According to Cogsworth, ‘If it 's not Baroque, don 't fix it!’ (The Beauty and the Beast, 1991). The fashion industry seems to be inspired by the baroque fashion and this can be clearly seen in either the silhouettes of the garments or the bold and glorious prints. Fall/winter runway collection 2012of designers like Dolce and Gabbana and Balmain are a celebration of Italian spirituality and grandeur (Davidson, 2012).
Heraclitus once stated “the only thing that is constant, is change.” , nothing exemplifies fashion more than this statement. As a person that is constantly demanding herself to grow and change, fashion is the one thing that can keep up with me. It is the only constant in my life that I have a stable relationship with, due to its shape shifting nature which resembles mine. A part of change for me was always aspiring to be bigger, better, and bolder; I apply all of those concepts when it comes to fashion and design.
