Fashion revolves around popular trends. Each year, fashion changes or evolves in regard to styles of dress and accessories and manners of behavior.

Fashion can be viewed through the lens of an individual and his/her distinct style or the wide array of trends that arise each year.

Fashion trends are influenced by several factors including political, economic, social and technological aspects of society.  Fashion has a significant impact on society, and what is “in fashion” in a particular year or season can tremendously go viral and become the biggest factor of one’s clothing life.

However, not all people get involved in new fashion trends, and not all new  fashion trends  go global. For those that do – and quite a few do go global – the result is it helps the fashion designers get paid more because they make more money designing clothing.  One trend that began in 2016 and had staying power as well as mass appeal was statement earrings. According to The website sea fashion state’s, “A favourite in 2016, earrings are not going anywhere. From statement pieces to multiple earrings in the same year, this piece of accessory will dress up any outfit, as simple as it may be.¨ Many women – both young and old  already have piercings, and the significance with the statement earring is that it dresses up any outfit and stands out the most.

Today, the new trend is filling in eyebrows, which women mostly  enjoy. Brinton Parker  on PopSugar, a site that delivers “the biggest moments, the hottest trends and the best tips in entertainment, fashion and beauty,” state’s, “Kim Kardashian brought the trend mainstream by posting a bleached brow photo to her Instagram account using said hashtag [#fleek], and the beauty world went nuts.” Kardashian’s style choices are often part of current trends, and this particular trend has become quite global. This new style has actually spawned a new trend term, fleek. Parker states, ¨Fleek — which is a variation of ´flick,’ a word well known to makeup-lovers — is when eyebrows are perfectly groomed, filled, and shaped.” Eyebrow filling has recently became a new trend which most women follow.

Even my mother is really into this trend because she got inspired from everyone around (especially from me). If one’s mother is following a trend, the trends can go out to anyone including the elderly and younger children.

Another fashion trend that has become popular is Bomber jackets. Many people wear bomber jackets –  boys and girls, and their popularity comes in  many different colors. Fashionunited – a site which shows fashion and the top fashion trends – states,”…however, as over the last 12 months alone more than 61,000 bomber jackets were launched in the US and the UK, reports Edited. ( This had happened because many people wore them more in US and Uk ) This indicates that many people were buying many bomber jackets, and since many people bought them; the prices for the jacketś raised; and launched more in Countries where people wore them the most in.

These three fashion trends have had a significant  impact on society because they are fashions that most people can find a way to follow, especially teens because they influenced each other. What is surprising is how fashion revolves around everyone including older adults, who one may not necessarily think of as “fashionable.” Fashion is something that has global appeal and  something we deal with every day.
