The term "fashion" usually applies to a prevailing mode of expression, but quite often applies to a personal mode of expression that may or may not apply to all.

Inherent in the term is the idea that the mode will change more quickly than the culture as a whole

A clothing style may be introduced as a fashion, but its use becomes a custom after being handed down from generation to generation. A fashion that comes and goes is called a Fad.

During the mid-1800's, a mass production of clothing was made fashionable and available to more people for lower prices. This encouraged more people to wear more stylish clothes which is why we are wearing what we are today.

Clothing is made out of all types of matieral such as cotton, rayon, spandex, and polyester, and they are just a few used. Some clothing may even be made of 2 or more different types, this is known as " Blending."

Clothing can be decorated or designed with all types of images and colors. The designs can either be embroidered onto the fabric, woven on to the fabric, silk screened, or ironed onto the fabric to create a desired look.

Some images that have been used to enhance an article of clothing range from a simple design on front of a T shirt to a famous printing that has been woven into fabric creating a colorful piece of art that one can wear.

In the world of writing for books, screen or stage there are only so many premises that can be used and all stories that you see are versions of these set premises.

Fashion is similar in that there is only so many forms of basic fashion to work with.

Individual designers take these basic premises and teak them. They make additions or subtractions, change material used, change colors and so forth till they make the design their own.

Fashion design is like going to Las Vegas during the season and playing craps. You roll the dice with the best of intentions and demonstrate all the skills you process and hope the dice come up a natural 7.

More often then not you roll snake eyes and have to start all over again and hope you will roll that seven the next season.

A Monte Bubblism from the mark twain of the animal kingdom.

The first designer that can get Brittany Spears to wear their pantries will become a designing legend.
