There are fashion myths out there that we have all heard. Some of them are so prevalent that they may even seem like more than myths.
Sometimes, these fashion myths have been around since the dawn of fashion. Other times, they may seem like common sense, but the reality doesn’t always translate correctly. Let’s take a look at three common fashion myths.
1. You can’t wear white after Labor Day.
We’re not quite sure where this one originated, but it is certainly no longer true. In fact, many fashion lines come out with white dresses, jackets, and more that are extremely prevalent in the fall and winter months each year. Just because it’s after Labor Day doesn’t mean you have to pass up that jacket you found! Pull out your Reach prepaid card, and get ready to dress in white.
2. Black is always slimming.
While black generally has a slimming effect, a piece of clothing is not always necessarily the best choice, simply because it is black. You also need to take into account the cut and style of the fabric. Consider what you are pairing the outfit with, as well. Don’t fall into the trap of thinking that you will certainly look great because the fabric is black.
3. Fit doesn’t matter
This is most definitely not true. No one should be seen as needing to wear baggy or tight clothes, simply because of their body type. In fact, people should find clothes that fit them, and stick with that. A good fit will do wonders for any body type.
