Essay:
Popular fashion has been continuously changing over the years and more and more prefer wearing fashionable attire rather than traditional clothes. In my view, this is a positive trend as apparel shops entertain customers with a range of novel fashion styles and it motivates designers to come up with the next trend.
To begin with, it is exciting for many customers to see a variety of trendy, chic clothes at an apparel store. They are impressed by the new designs and imagine with excitement how they will look dressed in these clothes. If these clothes suit them, they are utterly impressed and even feel as if they have transformed into another version of themselves. To give you an example, upon trying on an elegant, trendy Chester coat, a man might feel like becoming a different person. After the purchase, the coat might nudge him to behave stylishly in his daily life. These experiences can be an excellent opportunity for people to reconsider their styles and would not be afforded if they stuck to the same traditional fashions.
Another reason is that the rapid trend-change in the fashion industry motivates creators to invent the future trend. They work hard dreaming that their designs could captivate the industry. This dream includes cool models wearing the clothes at prestigious fashion shows, and eventually having their products mass produced to the public. Designers could not be happier than seeing their ideas spreading across the world. In contrast, if people were indifferent to a trend, no creators would have a chance to succeed in their creative activities.
To summarize, I believe it is a positive trend that an increasing number of people support fashionable clothes. This is because customers enjoy trying on fashionable clothes and designers could take advantage of the changing trend.
