Fashion or Beauty






Fashion or Beauty

A model is a person who poses or who is displayed for the purposes of art, fashion, or other products and advertising. There are a large number of people in the world today that say we should not judge people. Thus, they would say that we should criticize others, or we should judge people by how they look. This idea of judging being a negative thing is due mainly to the influence of postmodernism, with idea of relativism and philosophical pluralism. Now imagine, a model that is unattractive by American Standards. This model is dressed in Gucci and advertised in VOUGE. Would the public still notice the advertisement? Would the clothing still be beautiful? Knowing how we are as a society, I cannot help but to ask the question; are fashion magazines ever about fashion?
Are magazines selling Fashion or Beauty?
