Trimming the Fat.

  Body consciousness is no longer a female-centered issue. Lifestyle companies known to determine the standard on the female aesthetic, have recently targeted the male market. Spanx, the creators of slimming intimates and body shapers for ladies, have introduced a line designed for men. [Writer's note, I previewed this last year during New York's fashion week and thought it was a joke. I was wrong].  Female fans of Spanx publicly attribute their trim silhouette to the hip-hugging under garments. However, while Spanx is a proven hit for luxury stores like Saks and Bloomingdales, men purchasing Spanx to flatten their tummy's and improve their posture, rarely talk about their purchases.

The Fashionable is Political

  While clothing is a necessity (for some), it is certainly an opportunity to express oneself. It is wearable art and a visual extension of our character. Women in particular have developed a visual language that can quickly discern most of their values, ideals and desires. Across the globe, however, social policy makers from government to universities, are trying to change what women choose to wear, by dictating what is considered proper clothing standards. In 2004, France imposed a ban on "all conspicuous" religious gear throughout its secular school system. This included headscarves worn by women practicing Islam.
