The other side of fashion

- Today, I want to talk about the strong influence fashion has in our lives.

First of all, I’m sure everybody have noticed that little by little, fashion has become a really important part of our lives.

Since the last years,  more and more fashion bloguers, stylist, ‘’models’’,… have emerged. It’s really common that these people use Social Networks in order to show the world their style and their idea of fashion. Initially, it has nothing harmful but if we have a closer look we can realize how young people are always seeing stereotypes which can make them want to look like the models they see, and this fact has several harmful things.

- For example, people are increasingly insecure. They feel they’re not good enough just because they don’t look like people in photos or they don’t have  the most stylish appearance or the most fashionable clothes.

It makes that, especially young people, don’t appreciate theirselfs and that they desire to be like the other people.

- Furthermore, it can be one of the causes of eating disorders. People don’t feel good with their body if they don’t have the perfect size so they are willing to do whatever in order to achieve this purpose.
Based on this, we find anorexia, bulimia,…

- In conclusion, it’s sad to say but we ourselves are who are promoting unintentionally these kind of illnesses.
