Is there any limit ??

The Famous MTV VJ Cyrus Brocha says there are two MMS famous right now in India… One is the actual MMS- Multimedia Messaging Service and other MMS is – ManMohan Singh our PM. So I am talking about the recent MMS controversy!! U must be asking which one… bcoz today it has become a daily routine to have MMS cases in India. Some use it for publicity stunt... some for fun and some for whatever reasons... well I am not going to discuss all MMS controversies that are taking place, I wanted to talk about the today’s Fashion world and I brought the MMS issue here bcoz of Lakme Fashion Week which concluded last Saturday and had MMS controversy attached to it.

Last week we had this hot news making headlines about the Wardrobe Malfunctions during the ramps in the Fashion week. What actually happened is during one of shows the dress fell off exposing the upper part of the model and in one more ramp the back part of the skirt tore off exposing the shapely posterior of the model… Huu!! Both were hot news and all the media cameras covering the shows including the people having the mobiles started circulating the pictures in form MMS and whatever way... And all the media had made huge issue out of and the fashion world raising an outcry against the media and people for sending MMS. The fashion world calls it an accident and they say these things are common in fashion world and people should not make as issue of these things.

My topic says “Is there any limit” or should I say ‘where is the limit’ for today’s fashionables and fashion world. Today everything is gauged according to trend and fashion. If some ppl start to do something it becomes a new trend and if something new is on the block then people say it’s the new fashion. Well…well… with increase of media presence both print and broadcast ‘fashion’ has become a huge buzz word these days. Today every paper has some article or news dedicated to fashion world… they call page 3 and what not. Every Magazine and news channels have made it a point to bring out every time something related to fashion. They think its one of the ways to increase readership or the TRP’s by showing the sleaze around related to fashion world and celebrities. And what kinds of designs are these that fashion gurus are bring out. U give them 3 piece of handkerchief they make design out of and put on models saying this the latest trend. Oh!!!... Look at the fashion channels or segments related to it on TV these days it will be full of sleaze and the clothes they say designs cannot be worn in public. They bring out all kind of nonsense and still say its one of the best designs. Now who are they trying to target?? Just the celebrities, models and few other people who are crazy. If so what is scope of growth for them. They say fashion industry is big but if they design clothes which are not wearable how will they survive…

I know today fashion Industry is a huge business and even the general public is changing according to the latest trends in fashion. It may be the wish of designer to come up with whatever he wants and models may walk on ramp wearing it. But there must be a limit, a wardrobe malfunction may be an accident or can be intentional but the kinds of designs coming out are not acceptable to majority of people. Models may wear it and even something goes wrong like what happened they can still forget thinking its part of their profession and walk away with money for doing it. But what happened if they same costume malfunctions when u r wearing it in a gathering or in some place??... u just think of standing naked or half naked in middle of town..!!! After all real life is different from ramp walk. Even the models don’t wear such things in public what they wear on ramp. Now in country like India we have this act against obscenity in public… so Maharashtra govt has ordered an inquiry into the issue what happened last week to find out was it an accident or intentional show off!!! Whatever it may be I think somewhere there should a limit which no one should cross.
