Okay, so today I wanted to mess around with something I’ve been curious about – fashion cultures. I’ve always been fascinated by how different groups of people express themselves through clothing.
Getting Started
First, I started by just brainstorming a bunch of different fashion subcultures that came to mind. You know, stuff like:
- Goth
- Hip-hop
- Preppy
- Bohemian
- Punk
I wrote all of these down, just to get a good visual of all the different styles I could explore.
Diving Deeper
Then, I picked a few that really interested me, like Goth and Hip-hop, and started doing some research. I just googled stuff like “history of goth fashion” and “elements of hip-hop style”.
I found some cool articles and blog posts, and even a few videos.I spent a good chunk of time just reading and watching, taking notes on the key elements of each style, where they came from, and how they’ve changed over time. It’s kinda crazy how much history is packed into clothes!
Putting it Together
After I felt like I had a good grasp on a few different styles, I decided to create some mood boards.I opened the image editing tool and started a new project * that, I use a big size board.
I gathered a bunch of images that I thought represented each style – you know, pictures of outfits, celebrities, runway shows, and even just random things that captured the vibe.I started to design the mood boards.I dragged and dropped the images, playing around with the layout until it felt right.
This part was actually really fun, it’s like putting together a puzzle.
Finally,I finished it.I like the final result.
Reflecting
It’s really amazing to see how much fashion can tell you about a culture or a group of people. It’s not just about the clothes themselves, it’s about the history, the values, and the identity they * work is really fun.
