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.

And lastly, I don't really see any character wearing grey on grey, simply because I find wearing a same shade of one color is too blending, and makes a person invisible.

Actually I could see Draco rocking a fabulous grey on grey suit and looking super suave in it. Especially when he's not school aged. I think it would fit his refined and clean style.

Hm, I hadn't thought of that before but now that you mention it, I can definitely see Draco wearing the outfit! Maybe because he has such a blond set of hair and, from my headcanon, was pale!

Honestly, the more I look at it, the more I could see Percy wanting to wear something like that, thinking it would make him look mature and important.

Oh wow, yes. Percy would totally be all over mostly-monochrome with lots of subtle texture and a bit of color in the pocket square.

A+. I think that Percy would fit those colors wonderfully so!

Yesssssss Percy would definitely do the grey on grey. But.......I feel like his would be more try hard and not necessarily the kind of grey on grey that looks super chic.

Yes, this, the grey on grey look would be so boss on the filthy rich and infamous! It's Bond villain, silver-spoon-in-mouth material. I don't know how much grey I'd like on everything, but I think it would definitely work on Draco.
