Topic: why not let their voices be heard?
'To blog or not to blog?' A topic hot on the tip of everyone's tongue,
more specifically a concern for my third year class.
The statement was raised in a lecture last week and left open for discussion and opinion,
a contradiction?
We were left to give our opinion on giving an opinion?
Or potentially not?
The question up for debate was whether or not to give into the voice of today's fashion bloggers, to condemn or to encourage the freedom of speech?
The topic has been raised by many in the fashion industry with reference to the hierarchy...
Some feel bloggers, as such, have arrived and risen in the world of journalism so rapidly that there has been little chance for evaluation and as a result the exclusivity of the media is diminishing.
Others however, feel that the voices of fashion bloggers, their opinions and their insight is held in such high regard that its they have become irreplaceable and cherished.
Slightly transparent that as a result top designers and design houses are forming personal relationships with the most respected bloggers of the industry, pampering them with front row seats to the biggest shows and first class sneak peaks into the their latest collections.
Famous to the ever growing fashion industry - 'its not what you know, but WHO you know."
Its our right as society and opinionated designs to speak out minds, voice our ideals and be true to our verdict, its just convenient that blogging and tweeting is at our fingertips.
So BLOG - judge and convince, embrace freedom of speech remind the industry that life has become fast paced and whilst it invades the privacy of secrecy and knocks down the tower of suspense, no one can stop our ever evolving mechanics of life.
Why fear the take over when you can embrace the change...
Ashhhhhhh
FOREVER and FASHION <3
