Fashion is often associated with what pop stars or celebrities are wearing,but it actually refers to much more than the exclusive and expensive clothing produced by leading designers. Instead, it means clothing tha
16、t is in style at a particular time and implies the process of innovation and change in dress. In my opinion, there is nothing wrong with following it as long as we do like what is in fashion. First,fashion adds spice to life with its rich color,variety,and beauty. The fashion industry has been exper
17、imenting with a wide range of colors,patterns,materials,etc. , and as a result,offers consumers a more diversified selection of clothing. A Bohemian voile dress can give an unfettered touch to office women by freeing them from tight dark suits; a cowboy hat brings a bit more masculinity to a routine

However, thanks to the rapid development in this industry, many well-designed items are now within ou
22、r reach. A pair of leather boots may cost down to 200 yuan; a fashionable dress may only takes you 50 to 60 yuan. If you have an eye for fashion, some of your bargains will even stand the test of time and never become out-of-date. Fashion does have its critics,who have at times denounced fashion as
23、irrational, frivolous, and immoral. A common accusation is that fashion designers accelerate fashion change to create new business. Yet no new fashion succeeds until people are ready to accept it. Judging from the above analysis, it is not a bad thing for the consumer to move with the times and enjoy new fashions. 【知识模块】 WRITING
