INSTANT LANGUAGE

"What you wear is how you present yourself to the world- especially today, when human contacts are so quick. Fashion is instant language."

- Miuccia Prada 

With the captivating popularity of new technologies, and the incremental decrease in need for actual face to face communication, the fashion world becomes more significant than ever.

The way in which we choose to present ourselves triggers every person's first impression of you- vogue subscriber or bike fanatic father.

For strangers you are nothing but a glimpse, perhaps even a memory dependent on how right or wrong you get it. Another teenager, or another mannequin, unknowingly clothed in your own personality. When there is no communication, dress code is the way we let people in. The way in which we subconsciously suggest our age, our previous or future destination, and of course our emotions that morning- when the likely tedious challenge of outfit selecting began. 

As judgemental as it is, our material, colour and style choices fully determine the general public's first opinion of you. And that's the truth. 'Fashion is instant language', so recruit garments delicately, and keep in mind your eager spectators. 

You only get one chance to make a first impression.
