Part1sampleresponses
Candidate A
Candidate B
Fashion. Everyone has something to say about it, whether its Its my life, or Waste of time. Both texts reveal the
fact that opinions can be found in such variation that it only goes to show the strength of fashions presence in
society.
Obsess over it if you wish, or ignore it, but the truth is everyone wears clothes. There is simply no avoiding fashion.
The second text makes it clear that those who devote as little time as possible to thinking about it might sport
drab, ill-fitting clothes, while those who are more fashion-savvy will likely wear items from recent designer collections.
However, the first text suggests that this kind of attire profiling is in intriguing contradiction to the prevalent
idea that fashion expresses individuality. After all, however stylishly you might dress, you must follow some set
standards for style. There is an implied concensus that there is a notion of beauty to which you subscribe.
According to Text 1, fashions compromise is that you can only set yourself apart by agreeing with what you must
stand out from. Those who claim to not care about fashion as stated in Text 2 arent exempted from this either.
They are believers in an ideology that values efficiency, functionality or perhaps convenience over appearances or
aesthetics. Even if they dont think about fashion this shows in how they dress.
The first text mentions that fashion is multi-faceted, filled with often vague, sometimes contradictory concepts.
Devote as much or as little attention to it as you wish but as long as you wear clothes, know that it concerns you
somehow. Given this scale of impact, perhaps people would do well to give it more thought. On the other hand, if
its such a natural, commonplace thing, perhaps we need to pay it no more attention than the air we breathe. The
choice remains with the individual.
Fashion is a topic that has brought to light many controversies. Since mankind became aware of their nudity and
shamefully started to cover their bodies with garments, the matter became a subject of study. In this essay I
intend to present the different philosophical approaches that deal with this subject and to give my own opinion
about it.
Firstly, what must be highlighted is the ambiguity realted to the benefits that fashion provides to society. Some
people argue that using certain kind of clothes helps them to express and enhance their personality or even to
disguise it and experiment playing roles that are distinct from their true selves. However, others think that fashion
trends actually restrain their creativity and true desires as regards as regards what they want to wear and leads
them to behave as the majority does.
Secondly, there is a debate between those who think that fashion is something trivial and those that think it is
a relevant element in our lives. The former often argue that following fashion trends is a complete waste of time
and one should only be concerned about buying comfortable clothes. The latter, on the other hand, say that those
who seem to be uninterested in dressing properly often tend to lie, as appearances are very important in modern
society.
Finally, as regards my own view on the subject, I think that looking in an appropriate way is important to succeed in
life, as we have to make a good impression in order to progress, but it is also important to be ourselves and not let
our personality fade according to the opinions of others.
