WOMENSWEAR ‘19/’20
With rising demand for companies to be more transparent about their work practices and constant privacy concerns within the new technological age, the idea of personal intimacy is being threatened on either side of the spectrum. Fashion often represents our reaction to the world around us. Through see-through fabrics, tight silhouettes, and personal details, today’s woman takes the notion of her own privacy into her own hands. She decides if she wants you to see her nipples, or maybe just one. How much we share to the world around us does not always seem like a choice, but with fashion, we do have that power. More philosophical than material, the trend towards transparency is one that will only continue to rise as more people grow comfortable with expressing themselves, and at times forced to protect that right.
