Fashion in Austin, Texas

The industry is in constant change: prices, styles, tones, sizes, and more. But why does this matter? Why do we care about fashion trends? This can be easily solved in a few ways: check what is currently the most liked and try it out yourself.

Trends constantly dictate our sense of style. If we see something on television that we like, we instantly try to imitate it, like finding a new pair of pants that look relatively close to the ones you found online constantly opens our minds to try new things, new styles, new colors, and points of views. And sometimes trends can change our ponit of view, of our skin, weight, shape, and even size, a trend can harm anyone. That’s why most companies or organizations try hard to include everyone in their brand. Imitation is a part of our acceptance process, and imitating can harm us without knowing.

Everyone has tried to change their perspective at least once. Changes in the industry constantly alter our taste, like fashion influencers, who always change their liking to fit what is in style right now so that they can gain more followers. Trends can harm our thought process if we allow them to. Not just trends, but stores that have a certain dominance on the market can also influence our choices, for example, sportswear outlets, which are most popular in the hot summer. Most trends dictate our sense of style, but all around Austin are unique shops, clothing, shoes, outlets, etc,. But treends arent the only thing that influences us, TV shows, movies, friends and family also add on to our inspiration, copying styles is truly an effort, but copying can make us loose our uniqueness, and thats why fashion sense and style is so important. Now, everyone is included everywhere and there are more sizes in common brands. Austin is known for many shops all along the city, from rustic style clothing, to modern dressing, Austin is home to inclusivity.

Online shopping and instore shopping are now leveled as more people have more access to both

Certain shops have the most preference from customers and investors, and that is where she comes in. Ruby Sulter has her own brand called BDFO, which stands for Bold Determined Fierce Outstanding; the brand has had many collaborations with other unique corporations, like Topo Chico, Urban Betty, and the San Jose Hotel which is located downtown by Congress Avenue. The brand specializes in comfortable clothing that everyone can build their confidence in, and luckily for me, I got to interview the creator. Many of her comments were talking about the impacts her brand has on the market, her brand’s purpose is to make everyone feel confident while being careful and caring about the environment. When I was interviewing Ruby, she talked a lot about being comftorable with yourself, she designed clothing that help with that, she has recently launched a new collection, “I think that my favorite piece of clothing... would probably be the new shorts, definitely the new shorts because they are so comftorable and they have pockets, we made them so that they fit for any ocassion”. After browsing the website for some time I saw that the fabric is very different from other brands, this fabric is much softer and more flexible so it fits all body types. The inclusivity is really showing in the website and the clothing because it has sizes up to XXXL, most shops in Austin have diversity since nowadays there is more options for everyone. Most of the students that we took pictures of had different styles, comfty and unique were factors in clothing, arriving to school I see many students wearing different outfits, around in the streets I can see people wearing, dull colors, vibrants colors, and different logos. Many shops around Austin have different styles,
