There are naturally a lot of peeps in the fashion industry just looking to blame the Global Financial Cock-Up for their ills BUT some say that it’s fashion itself which got too whacked out of proportion…ie; not just pricie but poor value for $$$, not just trends shifting seasonally but insulting merde being served up to an apparently gullible group of buyers happy to look ridiculous just to be in fashion.
Pluto in Saggo from the mid-90s totally manifested as a rise in fabulous sportswear and designer jeans that one could wear anyplace…a definite decrease in formality & more Saggability a la the idea that a fit person can wear more or less anything and look fine. No need for fancy tailoring. And that if you’re active, you don’t need/want to be constrained.
But as Pluto heads into Capricorn & capitalism (apparently) reinvents itself, is fashion kaput? Which fashion trend totally sucked and were you personally reviled by? Is there any fashion trend that actually feels holistic & that you bond with? I’m drawn to the idea of non-leather shoes (eg; Stella McCartney) but i’m very Aqua like that. Leather feels old & had it to me now.
And, trend forecasters, what will Pluto in Cap do to fashion? There is, obviously, already a massive increase in the people doing and fascinated by craft. ie; d.i.y.
