What is Avant-Garde Fashion? Why do you think many celebrities dress in avant-garde fashions? What behaviors support your rationale?


Avant-garde refers to fashions that are innovative, extreme, and daring. These styles are common and popular with people who wish to stay away from mainstream styles and trends. Celebrities who desire more attention from others sometimes will wear such fashions. For example, Lady Gaga wears extreme clothing that most people would not wear. Miley Cyrus wears minimal clothing to expose her body from head to toe. Many other celebrities and even normal everyday people are avant garde in his or her appearance. These people choose to wear such fashions because since these are so extreme, most people would not choose to wear them, allowing these people to stand out and not be like everyone else. Avant-garde looks are not just clothing. It can be hairstyles, extreme makeup, or multiple tattoos and piercings. In most cases, avant-garde looks fade away throughout years, and new ones replace them. Sometimes avant-garde fashions become acceptable to society over a period of time. Again, many celebrities, such as Miley Cyrus and Lady Gaga, wear daring clothing to gain more attentions from society, paparazzi, the media, and other celebrities. They are examples of avant-garde.
