Abstract
Oh, the luxuriant bliss of it - that unsurpassed sense of residing within a world of presumed taste and infinite opportunity, a realm where the only limitations are self-imposed. There are myriad ways to define and interpret the role of fashion in the modern psyche, but whether it's meaningful and enduring or simply a distracting self-indulgence, one thing remains indubitable: it's pervasive.
