"Vogue Woman"...continued

Nowadays I have so much crap going on, I can't even take a break to think straight. Anyhow, continuing on the vogue woman, I haven't even reached my point yet, I know. But fear not, this is not nonsensical babble...to some degree.

So...where was I?

ah right, I was saying something about the people of the time reflecting the clothes of the time...well that's obvious.
But what concerns me is, who are the people of our time? Who's the icon of my decade? And where am I going find them?
Are they amongst the millions upon millions of Facebook profiles? are they the teen-age pseudo celebrities continually making headlines on fix.com? or are they the ones who stay out of the loop, are not interested in displaying or validating their social lives in photo-shoped photographs?

I think my point is with this very accessible display of the overt self centered nature of young people , with the upcoming youth representing the values put forth by Facebook and Twitter, with such a wide array of avenues for self expression, who's going to be the Galliano of tomorrow? Who'd want to be? Where does that small, innocent beauty of fashion stand in modern society? but, more importantly will it last?

Amidst the blogspots and photobuckets and whats-it-called's, where does the woman of fashion stand? She's not the 40 year-old Fashion Design lecturer at UTS, and she's not the 17 year-old clad in sportsgirl with a fan blowing in her face. With fashion lending itself to interpretation, I wonder, who gets it and who doesn't? Who is the 'vogue woman' of the nought-ies?
