Reaction:

I agree with author’s theories. Fashion should add own styles which are not similar to other people. In my case, wearing appropriate clothes can help people who don’t have confidence. That’s why people fascinate the famous brands. According to the article, designers should focus on modes instead of the prices. If designers can make clothes which have special devising, they would raise the price. Actually, fashion often confuses the customers because people believe that famous brands can show their status. For example, I like to buy the decorations of Gucci, for I want to show that I understand fashion and I know that how to wear clothes. But it’s so fool in the designers’ opinions, they think that following famous brands are not real fashion. However, prices of named brands can not represent status of people. In conclusion, customers should know that what I should wear and which brand I can buy. Especially, customers shouldn’t spend much money on purchasing famous brands.
