Fashion is the art of illusion and deception; illusion and deception for the most noble of purposes. With the right clothes, makeup, and hairstyle, skillfully applied, a petite woman can look taller, a heavy woman can look slimmer, and a plain or average-looking woman can appear more attractive, even beautiful. The feminine art of fashion has deep roots in history, at least as far back as the Egypt of the Pharaohs. Of course the real purpose of fashion is to create a surface beauty that allows a woman’s true inner beauty to shine through.
