Post #9 Technology and Fashion

I once heard an older women talk about how much she detested what technology has done to the fashion industry. She believed that fashion used to be an exclusive insider phenomenon, now it has been watered down because it is more assessable. Oftentimes people get stuck in their ways and don’t realize an evolution when they see one. The evolution of fashion via technology and social media has had great impacts on the industry. The rise of the fashion blogger, the use of drones in fashion shows, and now social media outlets like YouTube, instagram, snap chat, and Facebook has made fashion not only visible assemble to everyone, but more widely accepted.  One of my favorite fashion videos on YouTube is by a blogger named Wendy. The video is about her experience at Firenze4Ever, which is an event where bloggers and designers come together. The video is beautiful. It is well edited and brings technology and fashion together beautifully! I encourage you to take three minutes to watch it in its entirety!

Instagram is another platform that truly elevates the art of fashion and gives it a modern vibe. This platform allows for fashion lovers to tell a story with their pictures. For example, blaireadiebee the instagram account connected to the Atlantic pacific blog truly shows a story on her instagram. Her life between NYC and California, her trips to China and France are exquisitely presented in her story on instagram. 

 Even Snap chat has a great influence on fashion. Designers like Michael Kors, Valentino, and Stella McCartney all use this social media platform. Snap chat, like the other forms of social media allows people an inside look into the fashion industry.

I think these technical advances are a great addition to an already amazing industry.

Post #8 Look books

Through H&M is a store that I visit for inexpensive trendy pieces or inexpensive basics, I found this look book to be aesthetically pleasing.

Maybe it’s the hipster in me but the overall laid bad look of theses looks makes me very excited for spring. If only New York City would cooperate with the spring weather. Hello 30 degree weather!  

I really appreciate the headpiece on the model. Not so much the design but the actual idea of it. I have already incorporated this trend into my wardrobe. View the Video below for more looks.
