"It's hard to go with a trend. As soon as it's out, everyone picks it up. It's important to stay true to yourself. Have fun with fashion instead of letting it dictate"
About this Quote
The intent reads less like anti-fashion puritanism and more like an instruction for psychological self-defense. Warren’s “hard to go with a trend” flips the usual insecurity. The problem isn’t that you can’t keep up; it’s that keeping up is structurally impossible because the finish line keeps moving. That’s a freeing reframing, especially in industries where the body is a billboard and taste is treated as a moral category.
Her subtext is pragmatic: style works best when it’s playful, not punitive. “Have fun with fashion instead of letting it dictate” draws a boundary between using clothes as expression and being used by clothes as a status algorithm. In the late-90s/2000s model ecosystem Warren came up in, fashion was already globalizing at high speed; today’s social-media churn just makes her point louder. The real flex, she suggests, isn’t early adoption. It’s agency.
