HOW IMPORTANT IS HAIR STYLING AND GROOMING IN FASHION
Hairstyling and grooming is one of the most essential aspects of the fashion world. How a model portrays his or her hair is an essential factor, and it speaks a lot about the artist that designed their whole outfit.
Having luscious well-groomed hair improves your look by a lot. It definitely adds to your beauty. It’ll give you confidence.
With a good hair-do, you will feel in control of yourself and ultimately feel confident. Fashions will come and go, but a few hair fashions will definitely stand the test of time. A few hairstyles never really disappear completely. In different variations, they endure over centuries. Hair fashions are an exciting and sometimes revealing topic. Whether you decide to wear your hair long or short, light or dark, straight or curly, it matters not if the style suits your character and oneself. It sometimes may take courage and confidence to follow your own taste but expressing your individuality is well worth it.
Short haircuts come in insane amounts of variations from boy cut to pixie and bob. You may have to try a few hairstyles to find the right hairstyle for you.
There are styling variations galore for long hair. Long hair may be cut to even length or may be layered. It is amazingly convenient to change the consistency of hair. With little effort, hair converts from straight to curly and vice versa. While inclinations for wild or elegant, curly or straight hairstyles may evolve and reflect the mood of the time, neither version ever wholly disappears from the fashion world. There are hundreds of ways to portray your hair and add to your outfit by coloring it. Choose a color that endorses your skin tone and an appearance. Style-conscious men and women are definitely sure to spend a great deal of time and money to make sure they look their best.
Grooming is a basic instinct in humans as is one of the most needed and essential parts of completing your look. I cannot stress how dire it is that a person grooms on a daily basis. Mainly it keeps you clean; unwanted hair should be waxed or shaved off, make sure you always use deodorant if you have body odor. A well-groomed person with neat and clean hair and stylish appearance is the type of person that would be chosen to model or walk the runway. For instance, when a model goes for shoots or auditions the first thing that a casting director notices is their outfit and also their grooming prowess. If it is not up to the mark, they would be asked to leave. Since they would be paid to look their best, they must try to appear their best for the audition.
These have been some of my views on how vital hair styling and grooming is in the world of fashion.

The global apparel industry is valued at approximately 3 trillion dollars according to Mckinsey’s Global fashion index. The luxury clothing industry is valued at 300 billion dollars.
“The Devil Wears Prada” one of the best Hollywood movies of our time introduced me to the realm of fashion. This is the case for most kids of our time; we didn't know much about the giants in the fashion industry. Apart from completely falling for Meryl Streep and Anne Hathaway, my interest heightened, and so I wanted to know all about most expensive brands in clothing and accessories. It is captivating to learn about these big brands, when it all started and how they went on to accomplish so much and earn such amounts of money. Intriguing right?
Let us take a look at the most sought out brands in the world:
1. CHANEL: Coco Chanel’s mission is nothing short of epic and legendary, which is precisely what the brand is as well. Brands with such great stories are worth every penny that you pay when you buy something of theirs. Chanel had a unique ability for getting to know what the world of customers wanted and needed and making products respectively. And, her designs are still important and relevant to this day. Chanel was one of the first revolutionists who concluded that luxury has to be comfortable as well. The brand is still to this day at the vanguard of extravagance for apparel and accessories as well. Chanel’s brand value is a mountainous 7 billion dollars owned by the grandchildren of Pierre Wertheimer, who was the initial business partner with Coco Chanel.

They initially started in the 18th century as a label manufacturing leather fittings, saddles, etc. Hermes is the personification of sophistication and class with honestly everything they do. Just like a lot of other brands, Hermes have had their share of ups and downs in business. With a wealth of $5 billion, Hermes has come a long way and, that’s why they say that you don’t create a multi-billion dollar empire overnight.
4. GUCCI: Gucci was first started in the 19th century by Guccio Gucci. It is considered to be one of the most fruitful and prosperous Italian brands in the world. The Gucci’s symbol a lot of attention, and Hollywood stars flying out of Italy began noticing and using the products. Gucci then opened its first store in New York in 1956. Forbes states that Gucci is the 38th most valuable brand in the world. It's brand value is $12.4 billion, and sales come up to $5 billion.
5. RALPH LAUREN: Ralph Lauren started his corporation in 1971 with a Polo emblem and began shipping polo t-shirts having the logo near the chest area, which till date are something that can be recognized anywhere, even from far. They specialize in perfumes and accessories. Ralph Lauren is a desired favorite even in Hollywood, the movie " the great gatsby" proves this statement. The net value of Ralph Lauren is estimated at a staggering $5 billion.
6. GIORGIO ARMANI: "The Giorgio Armani corporation" was started by Armani in1978 in Milan. His fashion venture was established in 1958 where he worked with a number of Italian brands designing exclusive men’s wear. Armani later signed a contract with L’oreal, and that propelled them towards making perfumes. Around this time they expanded into Armani Jeans, Armani Kids, Emporio Armani. They have an estimated brand sale of over $3 billion.
7. VERSACE: Gianni Versace is an Italian, who comes from a family of designers. His introduction into fashion happened quite early because of his mother who was into the dressmaking business. Versace started his first couture collection in 1989 and subsequently two other labels called ‘Versus’ and ‘Instante.’ They slowly moved into accessories, perfumes, swimwear, etc and built an empire worth $800 million in less than a decade. His sister took over the reins of Versace ever since, and the brand has been nothing but unstoppable with a brand value of $5.8 billion.
This has been a brief look at some of the most well known luxurious brands on the planet right now.
