Many people, mostly women, are interested in fashion. Fashion is the style of dress or behaviour that is common or popular at a certain time. Many young people (and not only) are fashion-conscious and try to follow the latest trends in fashion, watching fashion shows and reading fashion magazines. Fashion styles often change. When mini-skirts first came into fashion, women said they would never wear them. But in the 1960s, women started to shorten their skirts and mini¬skirts were very popular for a long period. Narrow trousers were replaced by wide trousers, and flat shoes by high-heeled shoes (platforms). Later women realized that longer skirts are more practical and narrow trousers are sexier. But, the interesting thing about fashion is that it is unpredictable, even whimsical (vrtošivý). What may be extremely popular now will be old fashion soon and reappear (znovu sa objaví) in a modified form in ten years. Anyhow, fashion usually goes full-circle. For instance, wide trousers have made a comeback and, after being unfashionable for a long time, are fashionable and popular again.
