Apart from being a monstrous marketing con is it really just about getting a shag?

[Niamh.]

what????????

[Enid]

No. It's about confidence and identity I think.

[Crimson Dynamo]

Ultimately you are trying to get people to like you or shag you.

Its like the bollox you hear from boob jobbers "confidence" = "i want people to like me and shag me"

I'm married so I'm not looking for someone(except my hubby) to shag me lol, wouldn't say I'm overly fashion conscience though either so I don't know!!

It's all about identity.

*awaits negative comments telling me your still following something, if that's the case everybody is following something*

The only thing I find hilarious are these high end fashionista sorts who's life it is to basically exist in 'fashion' and to look 'fashionable', but to anyone and there gran outside a fashion show, on the streets, they look like a joke.

[Enid]

I'm pretty reserved when it comes to fashion. I don't wear short skirts or low cut tops. I want to look good, sure. If people like what I wear, awesome. But I don't dress for other people, I do it for me.

I wear jeans and a hoodie, that is about as fashionable as I get lol

(agreed)

Is not the reduction in interest in fashion with age not a reaction to a lesser need to need affirmation and sexual contact/find a partner?

That's what it all boils down to. I dress in ways that make me feel good. Evident by the fact that these days if you walk around a town with anything but a cheap tracksuit and an MC Smokemycock ringtone, you will get laughed at by at least seven people on the way home.

If I was dressing to please other people, I would just don a pair of Nike's and a baseball hat.

Fashion is everything. It's about expressing yourself and helping others identify you as a person, the sort of person you are and want to be. It's about feeling good about yourself, about walking outside confidently. It's about knowing you're presenting yourself as you are. It's everything.

Birthday suit works a treat for me in situations like that.

do you not think that if you upped your fashion you could enhance your shag potential?

[Enid]

I'm not really bothered lol

[Enid]

If I wanted a shag, I'd bleach my hair, wear a short denim skirt and a tight tank top. But that isn't me. I hate denim. :P

There are so many fashion faux pas to be made, but for me, dressing to suit other people is the biggest fashion crime of all. I remember when skinny jeans for guys had just came out and I was the only one who had them and I would get so many funny looks and sniggers but I never once decided to conform because I liked what I was wearing and that's what is ultimately what matters.

[MissKittyFantastico]

I just wear what I want. Have never been one to follow what's on trend or anything like that.

Sure I want to look nice, but ultimately if I feel good then I'm happy! I'd look totally ridiculous in a lot of the stuff that's supposedly 'in fashion' anyway tbh!

me too, I wear very casual clothes most of the time, jeans pretty much everyday!

[Twilight]

I wear what i want.
So what if other people don't like it

[WOMBAI]

I absolutely hate to say it - but - I do believe that most young women dress mainly for men. It is about self-confidence - but the ultimate aim is about looking good and attracting male attention. Those that fuss about clothes, hair, make-up etc are man-hunting. I defy any fashion conscious woman to deny it - I say they are telling a porky! Many will attempt to deny it and come up with many other reasons - but, in reality, they want to be fancied!

It is different for guys - they attempt to attract female attention by other means ie. fast cars, peacock displays of muscle etc. All amounts to pretty much the same thing though!

Me too hun, I'm a jeans, tshirt and hoody type of girl. If people want to judge me for it they can feck right off lol! I rarely wear skirts or dresses, if that makes me unshaggable then so be it lol! But I've not done so badly on that score so far so yeah

[Enid]

Fashion is all bullshit really. I don't follow a particular trend. I don't shop at one certain place. I'd buy anything if I liked it and then I tend to mix and match my clothes. I find some pretty.. uhh.. interesting outfits that way.

[Princess]

If I look good I feel better about myself. It is about identidy as well,hugely. I love to 'follow fashion' but I'm not an absolute sheep,certain fashions suit me and other's are hideous,I buy what I like.
