<Taste, fashion and the French fashion magazine> is the article I chosen to read.
In the first paragraph, I knew that the fashion magazine was originated in France in seventeenth Century, the role of the magazine is not only to record the process of fashion and the development of art, but also to promote the development of fashion.
In the next paragraph, I knew how does the fashion magazine appear (1627) and what form it appears. And then, in the years of 1768, fashion magazine got the official publication and the “taste” of fashion come out.
How to prove this thing is art or fashion, the problem began to be discussed, after a lot of experiments, that everyone has their own views on art, their taste, this is a very inspired me, everyone looks at each work has its own thoughts and opinions, because of this, the world is colorful, fashion is also various, in my opinion, different fashion together can be considered a real fashion.
Fashion magazines may not completely change the way people appreciate their beauty, but they can tell people how to dress, how to entertain, how to change some interior decorations, and tell people about their interests and customs. It also improves people’s fashion taste
Even in some art or paintings, there are also differences between fashion and clothing, such as Claude-Louis Desrais, Pierreomas LeClerc and Antoine Watteau “s grandnephew, Fran ois-Louis-Joseph Watteau (Morini 2006: C 32.), we can see in the illustration to the different class system of clothing is not the same, can tell the clothing tell the difference between people and history in the fashion clothing at the same time.
I really like this sentence, “Le Brun Tossa intended the concepts of fashion and taste to be regarded as fulfilling the same function: if fashion could be aligned with taste, it could also—very conveniently—be regarded as a form of art, and if fashion could indeed be regarded as a form of art, then it would also legitimately become the proper remit of the faculty of taste”.
Different types of clothes can present different culture and life style, people have the right to choose, fashion magazine could be one of the most influential way to spread.
Art and fashion are not conflict, fashion comes from art, and art comes from fashion.
So the transformation process of fashion magazine recorded the clothing style, also marks the transition to modern history, not only in fashion, of which there are many potential such as history, society, history, so I think the fashion magazine is a very meaningful product.
