Hello, GTPlanet. Nice to be with you all again.
As you may know, I have a little interest in fashion, especially female fashion. I once considred being a fashion model, but as far as I go, I still have school to finish. Now, this may sound like a poll question, but this time, this is just a discussion. The topic to discuss in this case is:
"Is juniors (teen girls) fashion becoming too sexy?"
I'll start.
I've seen only one girl on GTPlanet, but for the many others out there who may be looking around on a search engine looking for topics on girls' fashion, let me tell you. I am fascinated by how they dress. There are young ladies who dress stylishly, those into T-shirt and jeans looks, and then those who dress flirty and often times have shirts with somewhat sexy messages. In my "Uniforms" topic, I discussed how a person's style of fashion can help tell the world how that person is. So if a person likes to wear muscle shirts and has nice arm and chest muscles, obviously he is pretty strong and proud to show off his muscles. If a lady walks around wearing a skirt almost every day, then she is comfortable wearing them and she enjoys her image.
Often times on television, I heard of females as young as 7 and as old as maybe 17 or 18 on daytime talk shows (been a while since I seen those). Some people like to think that Jenny Jones, Maury Povich, and even 18-year olds on Jerry Springer desecrate feminine modesty and go to unfathomable lows. Call me crazy, but, a person that dresses provacatively doesn't always mean that lady is sexy. Just because a girl likes shorts and sandals doesn't mean she likes going to the beach. Just because a young lady likes athletic gear (they are becoming more fashionable nowadays) and athletic sneakers doesn't mean she spends at least 5 hours a week at the gym. And to this topic, a girl who dresses in high heels and flirty dresses isn't always an attractive person. Released last year or two years ago, there was a "Ripley's Believe it or Not!" about these pants in Europe that (and I'm telling the truth) expose clevage of the buttocks. When I seen the show and read some reviews online, some people said that these such pants "took fashion to a new low." Okay, it has nothing to do with a Cooper in automobiles, but the British designer is named Lee Cooper.
I personally believe that in America, at least, fashion is usually inspired by music stars, actors, maybe even fashion from around the world (like a red Mandarin blouse with Sakura on it, for example). But I don't think fashion is getting TOO sexy. I mean, I don't see any seriously revealing clothing. When those "mini-skorts" came out, I found it hard to believe they were not mini skirts. What these min-skorts were basically mini-skirts for those who have feminine modesty and don't want to dress provacatively. So once worn, they are basically "covered up," as we would say, by a pair of underlying shorts. And then the trend kind of went into skirted bikini bottoms, but that is a different story. At Baybrook Mall and in some other malls here in Houston, there is a store called "Bui Yah Kah" (which surprisingly, has no website). But the clothing offered are mostly club-style fashion young girls dream of wearing, almost as if they wanted to be at a Saturday night dance party or in their own music video on TRL. Remember my "uniforms" topic? Sometimes, a lady dresses up as a "naughty (or maybe innocent) school girl." It's more of a fashion statement even though a lady looks like she's going to school. And as far as T-shirts go, some can be funky, sassy, cool, and even mean sometimes. For example, one such shirt says "I'm good... just ask your boyfriend."
To end this topic and allow you a chance to reply, often times, mothers are concerned with what they wear in public. I am an art person, and I think that most young ladies often don't ACT as sexy as they dress. Also, the same holds true for fashion in Japan. The short skirts and tall platform boots and shoes (especially during colder times) can be fashionable, or even dangerous. Dangerous to the point of falling over and hurting your ankles pretty bad. I think some stores in Japan are having some stacky shoes get trimmed down so that the threat is minimalized. Or no matter where you go, fashion will be fashion. But here in America, the camisoles and pocketless jeans may look sexy, but I don't think it's sexy enough to stir any controversy (expect a counterstatement, John...). So what do you think?
And by the way, I have no problem with a lady baring her middriff (belly and back) while exposing her belly ring (you have to be legal age to get one) or back tattoo.

I find this behaviour more disturbing than fit women/girls wearing something revealing.
