COVERING IT

Imagine waking up in a world where fashion didn’t exist No designer labels, no street style, no Instagram-worthy outfits. How would we, as a society, start from scratch to create something so fundamental to our identity?

Let's delve into this fascinating scenario, as we explore what it would look like to re-invent fashion from the ground up

In the absence of established trends, our approach to fashion would likely begin with a focus on function over form The earliest designs might prioritize practicality simple, durable materials offering comfort and protection from the elements. The glittering gold dress in the first image might not be among the initial creations. But as humans are inherently drawn to beauty, it wouldn’t take long before practicality would give way to creativity

The figure in the second and third images exudes a bold confidence, donning a striped dress and a wide-brimmed hat. As society evolves, fashion would likely become a means of selfexpression, reflecting individuality and status. The return of fashion might see a re-emergence of colors and patterns, as we experiment with materials and aesthetics Stripes, sequins, and bold contrasts would once again make their mark, perhaps even faster this time around, as the desire to stand out and make a statement is a natural human inclination

The fourth and fifth images present a figure in a striking red ensemble, sitting poised and elegant, yet ready to disrupt the monotony of a fashionless world Here, the emphasis would shift from mere clothing to wearable art pieces that tell a story, that capture a mood. Fashion would quickly transform into a language of its own, a way for us to communicate without words

In a world where fashion had to be re-imagined, it’s clear that creativity, expression, and the human desire to connect would drive its resurgence Fashion, at its core, is not just about what we wear it’s about who we are
