Fashion trends – they’re like a mirror, reflecting society’s tastes, wants, and influences. So where do these trends come from? You can thank designers’ creativity, street fashion, celebrities, and influencers on social media for that. Lots of people embrace these trends, either to fit in with the crowd or to show off their unique style. But here’s the catch – these trends are fleeting. They come and go quickly, and so, many find themselves constantly changing their wardrobe to keep up with the fashion world.
