If u have done the 2021 'A' level compre recently, it's about fashion's impact on the environment. Now take a look at the political impact....

"Clothing is inextricably embedded in the social world. Dress is not an isolated activity… So the idea that "I dress solely for myself" is for the most part illusory,"

Hollywood celebrities made headlines in 2018 when they showed up in all-black outfits for the 75th annual Golden Globes to show their support for Time's Up, a movement aimed at fighting gender-based discrimination in the workplace and beyond.
