Fashion Styling - When clothes aren't only about placing.

"Perhaps from the perspective of your listeners, if you wear clothes and have a day where you don't like each other?" Of course, finding things to wear every day might be a challenge here. However, the other part of you, the listener, may not enjoy dressing up for pleasure and may wonder, "Isn't just taking and wearing things from the closet enough?" or "What do you want, it's just clothes?" Simply put them on, people. Others are standing by." This is another story worth hearing." with the story of Fashion Styling."

(The audio transcription was translated into English from Thai)

Everyone may have had days when they dislike dressing. Finding things to wear every day is incredibly difficult. However, occasionally some listeners can ask, "Isn't it enough to just grab and wear from the wardrobe?" or dislike dressing up to appear good. or "What's the big deal? It's just clothes." Others are waiting, so just put them on." This is an additional subject worth talking about.

What is meant by fashion styling? Before discussing fashion in general, it is important to note that the term refers to a trend, a period, or a fleeting fad. Style is defined as reflecting one's identity or conveying a distinct identity through different trends. Fashion styling, then, refers to designing, choosing the greatest clothing arrangements, and using clothing to show one's individuality.

The upper class was the first to establish a fashion sense, particularly during the 18th century when Queen Marie Antoinette was in power. She was responsible for Marie Antoinette's "toilette routine," which was exclusive to the upper class and involved her attire and look. Only the way clothing was arranged and maintained led to the diffusion of fashion across Europe. But there was a fashion designer by the name of "Marie-Jeanne Rose Bertin" or "Rose Bertin." In 1772, Rose encountered Queen Marie Antoinette and, depending on her identity, she asked, deconstructed, or made new garments. As a result, she became the first French fashion designer to achieve fame and the "first celebrity fashion stylist" in the world, successfully incorporating her style into pop culture 

Later, in the 1960s or the present day, the model group had to have their hair, makeup, and accessories ready to go with their outfits. During that time, top magazine editors decided to switch up their wardrobes and fashion sections to make them more current. As a result, they began hiring fashion designers to work exclusively for each magazine. And this is where fashion styling began.

Lastly, the golden age of fashion styling did not end in the 1990s, when female celebrities donned Giorgio Armani suits to accept Oscars and to church as a common practice, signifying liberation or dressing following social standards. Specifically, Franca Sozzani, the editor of the most well-known Italian fashion magazine, stated in 1998 that "the last 3 years of the 90s saw dresses and clothing became more individual" because she allowed photographers to select their subjects or objects to photograph and placed a strong emphasis on encouraging the team to try new things for the magazine.

Therefore, we examine the influences that freedom must have endured, including the different traditions that dictate gender, status, society, and class, which restrict many ideas and prevent us from seeing things from a single perspective. Fashion can also reach a wider audience and usher in an era where we can choose our clothes, match each look without wearing a set, and more easily express who we are through our wardrobe. It's also not surprising that this has eventually become the norm for "celebrity stylists" in the 2000s.

As we take a quick look at the history, culture, and development of fashion styling, you, the audience, might be wondering what fashion stylists do. They must, of course, gather inspiration or identify hues that complement the subject's skin tone before drafting the model into a form. They must also look for information and decide on other paths, including whether this environment is appropriate for the wearer or how to convey it to meet the social context of each time. Furthermore, style is not set in stone. Everything ought to adhere to each project's schedule.

However, setting up a broad plan is not necessary for regular individuals like us. For the audience to try to adapt or use it properly, we would like to show how we dress or mix and match our outfits as we go about our daily lives.

1. Who, Where, When, What, and Why are the five WH questions. With whom do we wear it? Where should we wear it? When should we wear it? We wear it for what reason? Because these words greatly influence the time and location for us. Knowing the direction of our activities makes it easier to choose appropriate attire, hairstyles, and cosmetics.

2. Although we don't require many garments, we should be aware of the colors that go well with our skin tone and body type. People with pink complexion, for instance, like to wear a lot of different colors or vivid hues. However, overly muted hues could make us appear darker. in order to prevent their skin from seeming very dark, people with yellow skin may need to change their coloring to be more yellow. To avoid making their skin appear overly dazzling, people with pale complexion may need to wear muted colors. Neutral colors look great on even honey skin. Colors that are neither too hot nor too cool, nor too light or dark, should be emphasized, even on two-tone skin. and we suggest earth tones or neutral tones like black, white, or gray if you are having trouble deciding on a color. You can wear comfy hues that are in the center for any occasion. It is also possible to conceal our bodily contour using color. People with apple forms, for instance Wearing a V-neck or deep-necked shirt with a camouflage suit and a straight or A-line skirt to slim your figure—even a tiny pleated skirt at the end is stylish—is also a good idea. Alternatively, if your body is oval, you can confidently disguise your physique by dressing in similar-toned clothing. For males with triangle-shaped bodies, we suggest wearing dark clothing and straight-cut pants with a shoulder-padded suit to appear slimmer. Alternatively, if you have an oval figure, you can wear clothing with the same color scheme but highlight camouflage patterns to look more proportionate.

3. To avoid wasting time choosing clothes, you should prepare your wardrobe in advance of the trip. You should also inspect your clothing for any defects so that you can change or find an appropriate outfit. Shoes and accessories should be in basic colors that go well with a variety of outfits, allowing us to mix and match our daily wardrobe.

Despite our opinion, it is indisputable that if we want to regain our confidence or if we are afraid to explore new areas, we should try to take things one step at a time. Given that we express who we are through our clothes, how do we wish to interact with the outside world? Another type of nonverbal communication may be involved.

I believe the agreement extends beyond apparel. Though it may show up in the form of food, architecture, or other related products, he was not the one who developed or met the requirements of the consumers in each era. Therefore, if you want to escape our antiquated structures, please do not sacrifice your uniqueness.
