What is Globalization?
Globalization means the speedup of movements and
exchanges (of human beings, goods, and services, capital,
technologies or cultural practices) all over the planet. One of
the effects of globalization is that it promotes and increases
interactions between different regions and populations
around the globe.

FASHION INDUSTRY
In a certain sense, the Western economy has been "global"
since the sixteenth century. After all, the African slave trade,
colonialism, and the intercontinental trade in sugar and
coffee made capitalism possible. But since the early 1980s,
transnational corporations, cyber technology, and electronic
mass media have spawned a web of tightly linked networks
that cover the globe. Taken together, these forces have
profoundly restructured the world economy, global culture,
and individual daily lives. Now here are these changes more
dramatic than in the ways dress and fashion are produced,
marketed, sold, bought, worn, and thrown away.

WHY ARE TRENDS
COMING BACK
The short answer is: because almost everything has already
been invented. Fashion is as much a part of culture as music
and painting. And culture is subject to cycles. Everything
new is well-forgotten old. The cycle of the fashion
phenomenon averages from two to nine years. But
sometimes it can stretch up to twenty. It depends on how
much the public is ready to accept the new.

if it seems that mom's shirt looks too old, think about how to
modernize it. For example, change the buttons, sew an
application or shorten the sleeves. If sewing is definitely not
your hobby, give the thing to the atelier. It doesn't cost that
much, but the thing will definitely return to the wardrobe,
and not stay in the closet.
