Torrid Size Fashion

In times of turmoil for the church, intellectuals and scholars who defended Christians against accusations from outsiders were dubbed the Christian Apologists. They included people like Justin Martyr in the 100s A.D., Augustine of Hippo in 300s - 400s A.D, and Tertullian in 100s - 200s A.D. Tertullian wrote pieces on philosophy in the church, prayer, and baptism. He was one of several apologists to write about God being three separate ‘things’, but Tertullian was the first to name the Son, Spirit, and Father as the Trinity. He was one of many to write against women in the church, but he was the most vulgar and profane. Tertullian’s publication, On the Apparel of Women, is characterized by his mimicking of Paul’s writings in the New Testament, paradoxes and hypocrisies throughout, obvious misogyny by a modern standard, and men’s harmful view in a time where I, as a woman, would not be allowed to learn to read and write if my husband or father deemed it so. Not only did he insult a women’s place in the church as others did, he attacked a women’s place in anything. In the centuries after he lived, his teachings aren’t as influential in the church, but his base ideals are still part of our society as out dated standards.

The “Inner Corset” by the Laura Fraser is about how people in the United State from 1880 to 1920 start from being heavy to thin. At the beginning the women were sexy if they were heavy and it was a sign that they belong to a rich family that they could afford buying food, but since times goes people ideology start changing. Then society influences the women to be thin which makes them more beautiful, and man would love them more. In the twentieth century the image of thin started changing and the woman were facing some diseases. According to The Inner Corset “When many women ventured out of their homes and away from their strict roles as mothers, they left behind the Plump and reproductive physique, which began to seem old-fashioned next to

The case of representations, that was written by Kevin Williamson, is a reply to Ta-Nehisi Coates. The author evaluates the issue of the representation in his own fashion. He points out the racial discriminations that the African Americans faced. Also, he describes the decades of slavery and the dark times that scattered all over the African Americans for centuries; and they after effects are still seen in the years that have passed by and predicaments have never disappeared from the American society and the case of representations will perhaps remain on the books of American history for many years.

Walking into the library at most high schools brings to the eye an array of fashion magazines in the front shelves. Most schools acknowledges that fashion has a large audience, but the skinnier and skinnier models have created a large group of people with eating disorders and bad self-images. In her article “What’s Wrong with Skinny?” that discusses eating disorders linked to the fashion industry, Lisa Hilton states that women are “so pathologically stupid that they are unable to distinguish the fantasy of the runway from the realities of their own bodies”. Fashion is something that many girls let influence them into changing how they dress, feel, and eat; the skinnier the models are (or are “retouched” to look), the more it supports eating

A long time ago I went to a very strange land called Fashion Island. I was supposed to be there for a week but the day after I got there I wanted to go home. That’s how weird it was. There was a big clock in the middle of the land that went ding dong every five minutes. There was a billboard right beside it that said what the people had to dress like. When this happened the people were throwing clothes here and there. Their rule was fashion had to change every five minutes. I saw people wearing clothes like back in the fifty’s. Girls were wearing poodle skirts. The guys looked like they were trying out for a part in the movie Grease. Then five minutes later they would change into something different. There was also people dressed like

You walk into a high school classroom, you see students half asleep, some bored with the material, maybe even a handful being attentive and studious. You do not know these students and they do not know you, you are just a fly on the wall here. You look in the back corner, trying to hide away from the classroom, a student in a sweatshirt way too big for their body, baggy jeans and sneakers. You assume that the student doesn’t want to be there, and wants to go home as quickly as possible. But, you are just an observer here. As the class leaves to go on to other subjects, you see that student appears to have feminine features hidden under all the baggy apparel. You might even think to yourself, “why is that girl dressed like she is wearing her

Through body positivity advertisements, teenagers will begin to realize how oblivious they have been during the years they spent hating their bodies. As children grow into adults and the years fly by, they should be able to say they spent every single one of them loving themselves for who they are, inside and out. Not admiring who the magazines or runways say you should be, knowing they are the best authentic version of yourself. In only a short amount of time, there will no longer be a “plus size” because every person has the same size heart, and that is all that

The ¨One size fits all¨ has some criticism with it. ¨The last thing women need is another company creating low self-esteem and body image issues¨ a blogger named Laura Zaneuth says ¨I will not support a Brandy Melville or any company that discriminates the majority of women. That says that Brandy Melville has some problems with their customers that do not fit ¨one size only¨ and I think that later on our next promotional campaign will be adding more sizes onto their clothing. There are problems with lots of other stores too, but the ¨one size only¨ problem is a big one. Brandy Melville does not mean for any of this to happen, but if you participate in our campaign, later they might add on more clothing sizes if their sales go up.

The clothing industry, as one of the most globalized industries in the world (Bonacich et al 1994), is currently undergoing a restructuring, especially the fast fashion sector. Fashion markets are synonymous with rapid changes and short product life cycles. Therefore, changes in consumer demand for newness and fashion trend force the emergence of ‘fast fashion’ strategy in retailers like Zara and H&M and shifts in the focus of competitive advantage from price towards quick response. That is to say, clothing firms, which are adopting global or offshore sourcing strategy, are not considered to have more competitive advantages as before.
