To the mainstream fashion world that is made up of fashion models, higher up designers and wealthy patrons, the streets is a strange foreboding that tends to upset their comfortable familiarity with occasional invasions. Amazement and disgust is a strange mix but something that actually plays out well in the ramp scene.
Designer Fashion Vs Raw Expression
When we hear of the word fashion design we think of Louis Vuitton, Rajo Laurel, and whoever name that has been around the so-called fashion industry. These names together with some supposedly trendsetting brands are the establishments of the said industry. And yet, their kind of creativity is formulaic tailored to the taste of an established aesthetics. This is precisely why the rebellious nature of the streets every now and then breathes a much needed fresh air to this almost exclusive world.
The Purity of the Streets
The streets is a melting pot of raw humanity, of human experiences that were otherwise hindered at home or wherever the creatures in it came from. It is a place of freedom, where newness, adversity and challenge are welcomed. And is a perfect place for raw creative expression.
The Ultimately Overwhelming of Influence of the Real World
Why does the establishment, albeit reluctantly, always succumbs to the wildness of street fashion expressions? The answer can be difficult to those in the establishment but fairly simple to the everyday people. It is because the streets is the mirror of reality. It is the real world and not the designer picturesque projection crafted by the industry.
Fashion is expression and it should always be.
