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.

But let's face it, that will never with work-attire. Neither will any other oversized, brightly colored 90s gear

Admittedly, I begged a differ. I can wear 90's gear with my work, but I work at a library so things might be vastly different than for those who work in an office.

Cropped pants I think are stupid for anyone

While I wouldn't use the word stupid, I do agree. Unforrtunately, pants always looked cropped on me because of my short height and bad hem jobs.

why would anyone ever wear a belt coat in the summertime

LOL, I do? I don't wear thick, heavy ones, but light ones? Definitely. They're good for rainy/cloudy/windy days. Help keep warm in, cold out.
