This post might be a little delayed, but I think the topic we discussed 2 weeks ago is very relevant. A lot of people think that people who study to enter the field of fashion will only make clothes that will satisfy our own emotional and aesthetic needs, and this has to be changed. First of all, not everyone is studying just fashion. Second, we, Clothing Technology majors, aren't just inclined to do one thing, and I think that's the greatest part about our course.
I have a lot of dreams that I want to come to life after I graduate, and one of them is starting a clothing line. Growing up, I found it hard to buy nice clothes because they were too expensive for me. I guess I took this as a sign that this country needs affordable (yet fashionable) wear, and I could be that person who'll cater to people's clothing esteem need.
Last week, I was asked, "When you die, what mark would you want to leave in this world?" It took me days to realize that the mark I want to leave behind is being able to make fashionable clothing accessible to those who can't afford to buy them.
