问题     In some societies, fashion is becoming more and more important in choosing clothes. Why is this the case? Do you think it is a positive or negative development?
选项
答案     Nowadays, fashion has become a prevalent factor to be considered when we decide to buy something for fear that we may become out of fashion or old-fashioned and thus are subject to the mock of others. There are at least two sets of reasons being responsible for this tendency.
    The first one has something to do with mass media, whether it is print media such as newspapers or magazines or the electronic media including the Internet or TV, where the readers or audiences are bombarded with all kinds of fashion things, for example, advertisements for certain dresses or suits with a gorgeous model or show biz celebrity, so-called advice on how to look cool and be charming with some dressing techniques and so on. These words or images are bound to have a most decisive influence on how to dress and what clothing to buy.
    Of course, whether to buy something fashionable is ultimately determined by we individuals, or more exactly, consumers. Therefore, some consideration should be reasonably given to the buyers themselves. It is often, if not always, believed that wearing clothes in fashion will give you some confidence, or a sense of being in rather than out of the modern life. In some other cases, fashion fans firmly believe that it is an indispensable factor for a decent life. All of these factors can help explain the feverish trends about "fashion clothing."
    However, it is claimed that too much dependence on fashion would lead to similarity or even uniformity in people’s dressing. I barely have this kind of worry, because I have a strong belief in the extraordinary creativity of the modern fashion designers, who seems to have a kaleidoscope to display. What I am concerned about most lies in the fact that fashion is by nature ephemeral. That means being fashionable at this moment may well change into being out of fashion at the next. As a result, some clothes may be worn once only, if ever, after the impulsive buying and end up their entire life in the wardrobe, which certainly is a waste of the planet’s finite resources and energy.
    So overall, I do not intend to vehemently condemn fashion but would like to remind consumers to be fortunately careful when disposing of the old-fashioned clothes.
