URBAN FASHION


MIND MAP

What is Urban Fashion?
- a sense of style that changes from decade to decade, century to century. Each era of fashion can change by very little or drastically. 


-Urban fashion is edgy and reflects lifestyle, attitudes and individually.


- Inspiration for urban lifestyle trends comes not from the media but from those trendsetters, those individuals within the scene that lead. Those that turn ideas into action. Those who refuse to follow conventions. These are the people that direct the urban scene.


- The conclusion is urban fashion is a real fashion, style that exudes individuality and attitude and is what the ordinary fashion savvy shoppers are wearing now.
