The English word for "fashion" is fashion. Among the various definitions of fashion, there are two representative categories: one focuses on the behavior mode that fashion is fluid, and the other focuses on the cultural connotation of fashion.
In social psychology, it is most common to regard fashion as a flowing behavior pattern. Kimble Young, an American, said: "Fashion can be defined as the behavior expression and way of thinking such as language, fashion style and etiquette style which are widely used at present." Chinese scholar Sun Benwen believes that fashion is not only a human behavior pattern, but also a morphological pattern of things: "The so-called fashion is a style advocated for a period of time. Style is the format of everything. ..... As long as the society advocates for a period of time, anything with style can be called fashion. "
Another view is based on excavating the values and cultural connotations embodied in fashion. H bloomer, an American sociologist, believes that fashion is a "popular or accepted style", which is often regarded as an advanced practice and has relatively high value in some fields. Japanese scholar Fujitsu Takashi also believes: "Fashion is not only a process in which certain thoughts and behaviors penetrate into society, but also a process in which people's value judgments are constantly changed through the infiltration process."
Fashion is a way of life that was first experimented by a few people in a certain period of time and later advocated and imitated by the public. Simply put, as the name implies, fashion is the sum of "time" and "admiration". In this extremely simplified sense, fashion is the life that some people advocate in a short time. This fashion involves all aspects of life, such as dress, diet, behavior, residence, and even emotional expression and way of thinking. Many people will compare fashion with fashion, but it is not. Simply put, fashion can be popular, but its scope is very limited. If it is popular, is it still fashionable? Pursuing fashion is an art, imitation and conformity are only the "primary stage", and its highest level should be to extract its essence and
True meaning, enrich one's own aesthetics and taste, and create one's own unique beautiful "template". The pursuit of fashion lies not in passive following, but in rational and skilled control.
In a word, fashion is an all-encompassing concept, and its tentacles penetrate into all aspects of life, and people have been arguing about it. But in general, fashion brings people a pleasant mood and elegant, pure and extraordinary feelings, endows people with different temperament and charm, and can reflect extraordinary life taste, exquisiteness and personality. At the same time, we also realize that the pursuit of fashion has promoted a better life for mankind, both spiritually and materially.
Fashion is a kind of wisdom
Fashion is a kind of life wisdom. It's definitely not just a few models doing a fashion show on the runway, or wearing some beautiful clothes or wearing a fashionable makeup that can represent fashion. A true fashionista may be elegant, gentle and quiet, but he or she has a very sensitive heart, or his consciousness is always ahead of the times, and he can always create ideas that lead the trend of the times, which is very, very important. Fashion also represents a concept of life. It is not static. There are also many very emotional factors involved. Even an insight can make people make a basic judgment on beauty in a very short moment, or it is the embodiment of comprehensive quality and cultivation.
Of course, any kind of wisdom needs to be expressed in a specific form, so we can see some fashion shows, all kinds of strange decorations, rich beauty cosmetics, or the diversity of people's lifestyles that were not available in previous years. People need these concrete forms to promote the popularization of the whole fashion concept, but they can't be said to be spokesmen of fashion, but only part of fashion.
I think fashion, beauty, etc. , which represents the trend of fashion, should not be confined to a fixed form, but spread a concept that can be extrapolated through the form of fashion. I am even more opposed to letting those so-called fashion details appear in young people's minds as fashion representatives and let them pursue them blindly, because young people's ability to distinguish is very weak and they can't understand all kinds of relationships. In simple imitation, it often seems a bit single. Culturally, it can define a real.
Admittedly, I think fashion is a profound knowledge. As long as society does not stop developing, there will be no clear answer to the topic of fashion one day. It is an idea that is gradually improved, updated and replaced in the process, which is very important. In my personal eyes, Chen Yifei's paintings are a kind of fashion, Xia Bangjie's architectural design is a kind of fashion, Suzhou's silk is a kind of fashion, and the landscape of Xitang, a water town, is also a kind of fashion, because all these have formed a vivid life scene that is well integrated with water, which makes us glow with longing for beauty, which is the crystallization of human wisdom.
