Good Fashion







Well it is not so easy to define what is good fashion as it is to identify bad design. Like when a designer piece of clothing is unwearable after one wash, or the color stains all your other clothes. But a factor of good desgn and fashion is its functionability - whether it's practical or not.
Well for Miyake's (the top) piece of apparel, it may be an awesome concept design but isn't functional in the singapore context (imagine getting into a lift, mrt, foodcourt etc ). Likewise Christian Siriano's piece (middle) isn't practical (heatstroke). As for a china man singlet, it can look hot on the right person!! So one key of good fashion is suiting the occasion and environment.
