Journey of a Costume Designer
Graceful dresses in jewel tone taffeta shine in Anna Karenina, while perfectly distressed fatigues set the stage in Saving Private Ryan. These two very different films have one thing in common: a talented costume designer. A costume designer analyzes the script, gets inspiration from historical documents or contemporary fashion designers, creates a team of sewers, assistants, and buyers, oversees the making and altering of costumes, and finally works tirelessly during the shooting of the film or television series. This process can take anywhere from two months to a year to create every article of clothing seen in a film or television show. Costume designing is a demanding career filled with challenges that pay off in creative satisfaction. A designer reaps the rewards of their hard work with their coworkers at the film’s premier- usually a chance to wear a great dress or tux and celebrate.

What’s So 2020?
As if 2020 wasn’t already drenched in enough misery, in walks puffy sleeves, high heel straps over pants and this equally unnecessary pairing of grungy boots with feminine dresses. It’s a statement, I get it and I can truly appreciate it. For decades women have been fighting to be heard, we have fought for equality and rightfully so. We continually rise from the ashes of the ancestral fires that were passed down to us. We are proud of how far we’ve come from not even being allowed to vote to being just as strong as any man. Listen I can totally understand the whole ‘I can kick your ass and do it while I’m wearing a pretty dress thing’ but can we do it in a more pleasing to the eyes kind of way...?

The Biggest Fashion Faux Pas
Everyone loves a good fashion trend, well, mostly. Personally, I still don't understand the appeal of Crocs. However, as a collective we don't always understand on a wide scale what these trends can do long term to the planet or to the people tasked with production. Everything made in bulk has an impact on the environment. The one we have to live in. When things are made quickly and cheaply, corners are cut.

Fast Fashion is Killing Our Planet
If you're anything like me, you have a closet full of clothes. Although, I don't actually have a closet. Instead, I have dressers and containers overflowing with clothes. Some of them are high-quality items I've had for years. Others...not so much. But regardless of whether it’s your closet or something else overflowing, you’ve likely got at least a few pieces that would qualify as “fast fashion.”

Hippie Clothes and Fast Fashion
I have seen many fashion trends come and go in my time. I was born on the cusp of the dungaree trend and remember wearing flashy and glittery scrunchies in my hair as a child. I grew up in the era of skinny jeans, emos and the post-punk phase that was the ‘scene’ culture. And yes, I had the hair to go with it. But I have never really looked at a trend with so much disdain as I have looked at the fast-fashion hippie trend because I feel that though it looks pretty good - it is a tad bit ironic, isn’t it? Let’s see why.

Why I'm Not Buying New Clothes in 2021
In 2008, I was an empty-pocketed teenager lured by the temptations of fast fashion. The country's biggest Primark had just opened in my city, and despite instantly falling into hate with the experience of shopping there - it was permanently rammed with customers - the concept of £10 outfits delighted me.
