Clothing Labels: Are we slaves to fashion?

Talking about Clothes gets women excited, checking websites and companies prices, seeing what treats lie in store for next season's collection...

In my opinion, English people by and large seem to be very fashionable. They wear clothes they feel comfortable in and create their own style. Personally, I really enjoy how people dress for themselves reflecting their mood and personality.



Another issue is the price. Most Britons seem to be able to afford to Designer clothes (or at least put them on their credit card?!). That's what makes the difference! Brazilians would need to have more money to buy designer clothing labels. Most of these clothes come from abroad so people need to pay high prices. Thus in Brazil people have their onw famous designers and must-have items.

High street stores are not fashionable in Brazil so Brazilians don't tend to buy from them. Largely they fail to follow seasons and offer poor quality materials. In England, on the other hand, high street shops are far more sophisticated. You can find almost anything you are looking for at a areasonable price. Examples of these shops are Zara and Mango. They are well-considered high street in Europe, but not in Brazil. Compared to the UK, these two shops are pricey in my country or, at least, not as affordable as they are in the UK.

Another important factor is the weather. In spring and summer, you don't think too much about dressing up (at least in Brazil). You main concern is to be comfortable and to show off your trim boby shape. On the other hand, in autumm and winter, there seems to be a wider range of clothes and people tend to dress more fashionable as well.

All in all, fashion differences between Brazil and UK are noticeable. Both countries have their own style according to culture, weather, etc. and these differences are fascinating. I'm delighted to have the opportunity to live and see these differences for myself.
