The Teenage Fashion Revolution

I was simply sitting in my bed, I was on www.boutiques.com and www.polyvore.com and reading VOGUE when being a thirteen year old girl ( almost fourteen) I obvisosly seeing as i'm a teenager without a job and pocket money i can't afford anything in them. I realised that this world is very ageist, the younger generation are looked upon as imcompetant  and they wonder why we despartly wish to grow up, when your young you imagine being grown up as this amazing world full of wonders that are completely endless, a wonderland because parents always say that you can do that when your grown up, your to young, the they grow up and get a hard slap in the face called reality, I wonder WHY  we can't, we are capable of standing on a bench so why are only the elders with bad backs and take longer to recover are allowed? When looking through websites/reading magazines I realised that in this fiercely ageist world, fashion is an escape. With teenagers the Lourdes(Madonna's daughter to those of you living under a rock) being style insparations and working with designers, the fashion industry isn't only looking for adults, models have to be young to compete and the apparently 'desired' body type is often the same as younger girls. What is it about the fashion industry that makes it so open-minded. People may say that fashion is materialistic and cruel, but they are open-minded for example if you worked at a fashion magazine and came in wearing a fabulous Matthew Williamson dress is an amazing loud print you would be admired but if you worked at a bank they would look down upon you as if how your dressed effects your work and makes you dumber. Its completely insane, so in this incredible industry they accept anything from Lady Gaga and Vivian Westwood  to Chloe and Alexa Chung and the snooty and quite frankly more boring people call us shallow and closed-minded, I would say take a look in the effing mirror darling (if you own one that is), why do you call us fashion people shallow and insult our world when you use us everyday, If it wasn't for our industry what would you be wearing as clothes? on your face? in your hair? now please rethink you opinions :) x
