Activity: Fashion Trends - a discussion
Points: initial comment: 10 points, 2pts per additional comment
Deadline: May 15th, 21:00 UTC
Details: Every summer we have new fashion trends but do you like them? What would you change?
And do you think the Harry Potter characters would wear them?

So let's have a little debate. It's about fashion and I know that I love to talk about what models have been wearing on the runway (and well, when watching Germany's next topmodel I also laugh about the "models")
Anyways, like every summer there are some must-wears - at least that's what Fashion magazines tell us. But what do you think about these must-wears? Do you like them? Hate them? And would Hermione, Ron, Draco or Snape wear them? I googled some of the trends and posted the pictures so you have an idea what to talk about.

Oh my gosh, I completely agree about Pansy being into 60's looks. I honestly see her as someone that thinks wearing vintage clothing from that era as something high-class and very sexy, almost. Which also intrigues me because I imagine her looking back into Muggle things and a;sdlkfjadf now I think I actually have inspriation for a sugarquill fic. BUT, that's besides the point.

I love your cropped trousers stuff, too. I really think it just makes the person looks a million different negative things, like unintelligent or bad at laundry or just... blind. Or blind to his own body type/size. However the image of Draco attempting them and getting made fun of makes me glad that they are in existence, even just for a fictional character.

Pansy would look great in an inspired 60s look, especially with that bob hair cut. I think that it would be a very sleek look for her.
