Today, fashion is becoming more and more important in choosing clothes. What are the reasons? Do you think the trend is positive or negative?

Nowadays, with the influence of social media and commercials on the internet,

fashion

has become more and more critical for people to purchase apparel. From my perspective,

this

phenomenon is leading to a large number of wasted materials and causing group pressure. In

this

essay, I am going to explain my reasons why it negatively affects modern society.

To begin

with, the popularity of social media is the major reason why people care about

fashion

. The commercials on TV make the public pursue products from well-known brands.

Moreover

, the influencers always show off their garmet on the internet platforms like Instagram and Facebook which not only contributes individuals to imitating them but

also

causes group pressure.

For example

, in Korea, most young people desire to wear the same model of shoes and clothing as idols.

On the other hand

, the effects of

this

trend include peer bullying and the waste of resources. The

fashion

industry is ranked at the top of the resources-wasting industries.

For example

, Nike, the most famous brand of sneakers around the world, launches new products every season. With the promotion on the Internet, many youths jostle to purchase the latest product even if they have had many sneakers already.

For instance

, a lot of juveniles purchase hundreds of pairs of shoes and even only wear them once before throwing them up. In conclusion, social media and celebrities are the main reasons why the majority of individuals tend to follow

fashion

.

However

, only caring about wearing the newest style of clothing or insisting on following the

fashion

can contribute to campus bullying and contaminate the environment.
