Some people say fashion is a sophisticated form of expression. And as we have seen through different seasons, fashion has certainly pushed and redefined the limits of both sophistication and self-expression. But where does one draw the line between classy reinvention and down right tacky desperation?
To this end, Taiwan certainly lends itself in adding several more plastic layers on top of an already hazy distinction between class and crass. As its newest fashion trend, Taiwan has originally managed to get its young and bold ladies into plastic bags as a hip OOTD (outfit of the day). A number of girls were quick to jump in the bag (pun intended) and take sexy selfies wearing nothing but customized plastic bag outfits with store brands printed on the center. Talk about catchy branding.
Some people might associate this new trend with the look of pop celebrity Miley Cyrus during her hosting stint on this year’s Video Music Awards. As one of her numerous costume changes for the night, the controversial singer came out wearing a transparent plastic dress with dots strategically placed to conceal her private areas. As always, mixed reactions have flooded the internet on her new and unconventional look.
Several fashion bloggers applauded Miley’s bold outfits and called them fun numbers that aim to remind young people not to take their outfits too seriously. On the other hand, critics of both the singer and this look were outraged with how this kind of fashion left very little to the imagination, not to mention respect from other people.
Whether you love or hate this new plastic bag look, no one can deny that it catches as much attention, which some would say is the very essence of fashion. For years, fashion designers or artists, for that matter, have come up with endless designs that are somewhat polarizing. You either love them or you hate them. And true enough, the same can be said for this latest Taiwanese trend. As the saying goes, “one woman’s trash is another woman’s treasured plastic bag outfit.”
