Style is a matter of personal taste and comfort. It may not abide by the market trends and may remain the same for a particular individual depending on their choice. When it comes to me, I generally wear apparels that go with my body type and thus prefer baggy clothes. According to the present fashion trend, cropped tops and body-cons are quite the style, however, since style is personalized, I do not go by that norm.
Fashion is permanent but it adapts itself with the change in trends and the desire of the masses, transformation in time and industries. Corsets for example are something that originated in the Victorian era. The usage of corsets had declined in the late 1900s but it’s becoming trendy again. The materials used have changed over time. Previously, these outfits were made of wood and cloth which has now been replaced by wires and are much more comfortable.
FAD is a short-lived craze for particular item or style that fades out with time, almost like a craze. Just like balloon pants that have stopped being a thing now. In the past, every other person was going gaga and buying these pants. They were pairing it up with every other top and accessories.
Introductory stage- When a product has been launched very recently and the company is yet to understand the acclaim it will get from the consumers. Examples of such products are maggi fusian flavors and the Berrisom lip tint. Maggi generally game in the masala and the chicken flavor but people were getting bored of it and this is exactly when Nestle took the opportunity to introduce authentic flavors. Make up is something that evolves everyday and each brand tries to introduce a better version of it, the South Korean company of Berrisom is no different.
Growth stage- When the product is being received well by the customers but still has an opportunity and scope to grow even more. Air pods are becoming trendy and being widely accepted which is the very reason why even I got a pair. Xiaomi phones are really affordable and handy but it does not have the widest sale in the world, it is based in China still has a much larger scope to outgrow other companies.
Maturity stage- The product, when it comes to a stable condition, is considered to have acquired maturity stage. Lotte Chocopie is still a sensation even after a long time of its release and so is Dark Fantasy.
Decline stage- After achieving the maturity stage, the product slowly becomes undesirable due to the monotonous experience gotten from it. Until and unless there is a variation brought about of any sort, it is difficult for the product to hold its ground in the market. I had once bought a blackberry phone but since it went out of fashion as well as there was no up-gradation of sorts, I switched to Samsung. Many candies like the nestle eclairs have become obsolete overtime only because its competitors had taken over the market and they were unable to come up with anything new.
