Arbiters of style
The fashion business is creating parameters that will separate the “fashionable” from the “unfashionable.” To become fashionable and enter the masses, a thing must satisfy the tastes of selective “gatekeepers” (arbiters) of fashion.
Designers, marketers, journalists and editors work within this system to decide what will be at the peak of popularity in the coming season. In the modern Internet era, bloggers play an important role, discussing industry innovations and promoting promising trends in their reviews.
Recently, the contingent of fashion critics has become significantly younger: now the front rows at closed fashion shows are occupied not by venerable journalists from leading paper publications, but by young men and women, whose reviews on social networks are highly valued by online communities.
Designers at ready-to-wear fashion shows offer models that are difficult to imagine in everyday life. They are designed to demonstrate the ingenuity and originality of the couturier.
