An article. Practice for the CAE exam :) Fashion and changing lifestyles: Its importance in our society We all know that fashion is an important matter within our society,. When we think in fashion, we probably think about products such as clothes, sunglasses, jewellery and so on. However, I think that fashion involves not only products that we could wear but our personality, depending on the place where we live or the people that are around us. It is obvious that people are totally dependent of the latest tendencies regarding fashion. What’s more, a lot of people are always waiting for the new t-shirt or the last dress that a famous actress has dressed during a special party. In this process, the mind is really important. Our thoughts are totally influenced by this, and we usually cannot fight against it. It is sad to say but we are dominated by fashion tendencies, and our society adapts to it even if there is no need to do it. Therefore, we can say that our lives are controlled by these changes, by this fashion trend that is growing without an end. In the past, our grandparents weren’t dominated by these tendencies. They were used to wear whatever they found in their shops due to the lack of usefulness that this aspect had for them. They were smarter than us, because they were thinking about more important things such as food or work. As we see, this comparison between both epochs, shows the changes that fashion has had through society. Also, we can observe how our preferences has changed, but not improved. Could we say that we are not as smart as our ancestors? Maybe in that aspect they were better than us. We should deeply think about it, due to the weird aspects that we have on mind most of the time. If we want to improve as society, fashion should be an small aspect in our lives.
