Body Image

This photo is a critique of the impact which the fashion industry and its images have on women, their self-perceptions, and body image.

Spent

People let fashion consume them, as well as their wallets. Spending can become a large aspect of peoples' lives.

ARTIST STATEMENT

It is said that it is human nature to never be satisfied with what we have, but in society today, this need is being amplified through marketing and branding. My name is Maegan Fidelino, and I am a shopaholic. I will be the first to admit that I have fallen for the myths of branding especially in the realm of fashion - from glamourous images, to colours, and sometimes even the not-so-real promises. But admission is the first step to recovery, right?

Throughout this term and within this blog, I hope to exploe the the theme of fashion, but to also delve a little deeper and investigate fashion as an industry and an image thus taking a more critical look at the ideals of consumer culture and how it impacts society today.
