6 Fashion Staples And The Cultural Origin Behind Them - MissMalini

Fashion trends are basically a product of a recycling-like process. Every few
years, a new trend gains sudden prominence, which, more often than not, has been

a pandemic by the World Health Organisation and I’ve been maintaining social
distancing ever since then. And yes, I know online shopping exists but I’m a
