“Unlike art, the consumption of fashion is not based primarily on knowledge or education but functions through visual awareness, a type of sensuality and perception of the corporeal self.” ArtSelfAwarenessFashionTypePerceptionFunctionSensualityVisualsConsumption Book:Encyclopedia of clothing and fashion Source: Encyclopedia of clothing and fashion
“Fashion is not trivial. It's a huge industry and a big part of our lives. Fashion is about us - how we look and present ourselves, how we can change ourselves, and our perceptions. You can dress up to be quite glorious creatures - it's all a very important part of life.” LooksImportantBigsOur LivesFashionHugeIndustryCreaturesPerceptionDressesGloriousParts Of Life Author:Charlotte Rampling
“Adolescents, for all their self-involvement, are emerging from the self-centeredness of childhood. Their perception of other people has more depth. They are better equipped at appreciating others' reasons for action, or the basis of others' emotions. But this maturity functions in a piecemeal fashion. They show more understanding of their friends, but not of their teachers.” PeopleSelfReasonShowsActionUnderstandingEmotionTeacherChildhoodFashionPerceptionAppreciateFunctionBasesDepthMaturityInvolvementEmergingSelf CenterednessCenterednessPerception Of Others Author:Terri E Apter
“The silver lining of Brexit and Trump is that it has undermined the perception that globalization is an unstoppable force, whether or not we think it is a good thing or a bad thing. There have always been losers and as well as winners in this process, and cultural minorities have been among the most vulnerable losers. Now that sizable numbers of people in the most advanced economies have made their grievances felt in a fashion that is hard to ignore.” PeopleThinkingEconomyFashionPerceptionGood ThingsVulnerableWinnerSilverLoserGlobalizationGrievanceUnstoppable Author:David Wong
“Maybe Japan itself is a little similar in that a lot of young people seem to have a little knowledge but not too much depth. I guess my perception of the art specialists in America or in Europe is that the art people are kind of mainly just the art people and that community is self-contained. But in Japan, it mixes with fashion and other things. I'm sure that many authentic art dealers or insiders didn't like the way that we presented our show in this very pop-y, accessible manner - just showing parts of our collections and selling prints and collaborative products.” PeopleKindArtCommunityFashionPerceptionSellingPrintDealerLittle Knowledge Author:Hiroshi Fujiwara
