Hello to nobody! I’ve received some positive reviews on the first post and it has really inspired me a lot. Well, frankly speaking, I dream of becoming a fashion journalist but still have little information about this sphere. It’s a shame that a 9 years old girl has written 16 fairy tales and I am only at the very beginning of my path being 19. Nevertheless, better late than never.

About what this blog is going to be? I am still not quite sure. But, undoubtedly, it will represent my inner thoughts about the world.

I have always been passionate about writing but actually never realized that it could be real. A few months ago my decision was the total change of my whole life including the career path. I was attracted by Fashion Journalism course in London College of Fashion. Moreover, my project work for this year is closely connected with the fashion industry, its perception and changes.

In today’s extremely fast-moving world everybody wants the newest, most popular and most fashionable. This relates to the fashion world as well.

For me, fashion is the perception of the world, how one can find a niche in the society by means of self-realization. Fashion is a part of the art world and it is not only cloth design and fashion show, it is also a display of strong personalities who were and are able to create their own style. Yves Saint Laurent, Jil Sander, Christian Dior, Cristobal Balenciaga, Coco Chanel, Mary Quant (‘the mother’ of the minis). All these men and women made a great contribution to the fashion industry but the list can be innumerable. In my opinion, these fashion-gurus have shown features needed for the fashion – originality, individuality and innovation. Moreover, they persuaded people to wear their pieces of art, especially from 1900s, when fashion expressed the style of the subcultures, the youth.

Fashion is a various-sided concept which is spread all over the world. I think that almost every person in the developed countries knows that Chanel is famous for her little black dress and was inclined to make elements of male fashion in women’s suits such as form-fitting trousers and jackets. For instance, Cristobal Balenciaga was often called ‘designer of the designers’. Even Chanel said that he had been a unique designer that brought innovation to fashion. His clothes are famous for its unusual shapes and his bags are inimitable. He had made revolution in the fashion world.

These are few examples of the cult figures of the fashion world. Fashion needs talent, passion and hard work. And all objectives in this sphere can be achieved only by means of great effort.
