[quote user="jompa"]Am I the only one who thinks that wearing only YY, DH, Ann D or whatever is quite.. odd? I do think you often look good though matthew and anyone else who wears a lot of the same brand. I just wonder if it doesn't feel weird to wear a whole outfit from the same brand? I mean when I wear something nice my friends usually ask me what it is, and I would feel a bit ashamed if I had the answer "it's all xxxxx". Isn't a big part of the fun in clothing to match different clothes and styles and make it your own rather than buying outfits from one designer? Don't mean to be mean/rude or anything just wondering.

I think that's just the current viewpoint on how clothes should be styled on individual persons. There was a time when the idea of mixing different designers in terms of ideas and silhouette was unthinkable.</p>

In terms of fashion, I do think things are starting to look too similar. Women, specifically, are encouraged to "mix and match," composing outfits by juxtaposing feminine and masculine, floral and futuristic, etc, but the majority of people seem to lack individuality and follow the mix and match formula dictated by whatever powers and in that sense, yes, I do think fashion is beginning to look to homogenized. But that doesn't mean I think clothing necessarily all looks the same.
