The fashion designers are creators! Even in these times of economical insecurity, the fashion shows and the fashion weeks still attract an impressionable number of fashionistas. The catwalks are full of gorgeous models presenting the latest collections of some of the top designers, however we can say that the fashion week buzz is a lot dimmer. 

The fashion industry and the fashion designers have also been affected of the financial state in which we find ourselves. However, there is no need to despair in times of crisis but adapt to the given situation. This seems to be the way the designers think if we take a look at this year's collections. Even the shows at fashion weeks seem to be completely following this trend. Compared to the ones in the previous years, the collections seem to be more down to earth and wearable. 

Even though some collections have this premises as a starting point the differences of style and attitude the clothes have is completely different. If we take a simple look at the world's biggest capitals we will notice the difference in style and fashion trends. The fashion scene in France is dominated by some of the world's most famous designers such as Nina Ricci, Dior, Gautier and many others. Paris is considered to be the world's fashion capital, or at least this is what all the fashionistats say, in reality it seems that Paris is actually losing its fashion crown to London. Some of the most famous British designers are Vivienne Westwood, Sir Hardy Amies, Christopher Kane and many others. 

The French designers have always had a passion for chic and classic looks and also they like to transform their clothes in glamorous outfits. Their outfits are sophisticated and always accompanied by smart accessories. One can see French fashion shows and boutiques all over the world this one of the reasons why their fashion style prevails at all times. On the other hand, the British designers create conservative outfits but they use more extravagant materials for the items they create. The British designer collections always take one to the idea of royalty and dignity. 

The style of a designer is influenced also by the city and the country where he/she lives, nonetheless when choosing a particular clothing item to wear we should relay on our personal taste. The fashion trends and styles are many however we should always choose to invest only in the things that represent us and our personality.
