 Argument
Through the years fashion has been described in many ways
by many people. I have chosen to write about the fashion
industry because I think fashion has given us a voice. Every
morning we wake up and we choose the clothes we are going
to wear that day. And even though we say we are not into
fashion we make that decision everyday. The clothes we
choose to wear represent what we are and what we want to tell
the world without words. They are the reflection of our
deepest thoughts.
 Introduction
Fashion is a distinctive and often constant trend in the style in
which a person dresses.
UK fashion has a unique spirit and energy that ignites the
imagination of the world.

She's constantly been ahead of the curve, not just influencing
fashion, but often times dictating it.

feminine edge and considerate approach to wearable design.
 Matthew Williamson

Manchester and is a British fashion designer renowned for his
use of bold, colourful and carefully constructed designs.

collections reflect a refined yet spirited sense of glamour,
inspired by global and artistic influences.
 Top Models

Doukas.
Her collaborations with Calvin Klein brought her to fashion
icon status. She is known for her waifish figure, and role in
size zero fashion.
 Naomi Campbel

British supermodel and actress. She was one of five models of
her generation declared supermodels by the fashion industry.
She has appeared in Cosmopolitan, Vogue, and Elle, and was
the first black woman ever to appear on the cover of the
French Vogue and the British Vogue.

Cara Jocelyn Delevingne was born on August 12, 1992 and is
an English fashion model and actress. She signed with Storm
Model Management after leaving school in 2009.
She has been called the next Kate Moss, but the similarities
begin and end at their shortish stature, English background,
and penchant for late nights.
 Editors
Liz Tilberis
Elizabeth Tilberis was born 7 September, 1947 and she is
known professionally throughout her career as Liz Tilberis, a
British fashion magazine editor of Manx and English ancestry.

Harper's Bazaar and she was the one who transformed it from
a tired magazine into a viable voice in fashion while she
battled ovarian cancer.

November 3, 1949. She is a British-American journalist and
editor.and she has been editor-in-chief of Vogue since 1988.
Wintour has become an important figure in much of the
fashion world, widely praised for her eye for fashion trends
and her support for younger designers.
 Glenda Bailey
Glenda Adrianne Bailey was born on November 16, 1958 is
the editor-in-chief of Harpers Bazaar, a monthly fashion
magazine published by the Hearst Corporation.
Bailey's belief and interest in the process of fashion and
magazine making is so profound it's hard to relate to, but it
gives her enormous power.
 Conclusion
In conclusion, I strongly believe that the fashion industry
should receive more appreciation because it is as important as
any other industry. Fashion gives us a huge power, a power
that we don't appreciate enough, the power to be ourselves and
express what we are. You might think that this kind of power
is hard to obtain but actually it is a matter of willingness to
take advantage of it everyday.
