One of the most significant changes that take place because of COVID-19 is the requirement to wear face masks when we are out in public. However, it also seems that this wearable will become a more considered fashion item both nowadays and even a little longer after the pandemic.
There are several reasons as to why we have this belief about face masks. First, this global pandemic is not something that will go away that easily. People will have to try their best to avoid making it worse, and wearing a face mask is significantly important. Second, people still have the need to express themselves through fashion. Since face masks are wearable items, we are free to choose how our mask will look like.
Face masks as a fun fashion trend
Many fashion designers have started incorporating face masks into their works. Some even go as far as showcasing in a prestigious event. There are now more options to choose from, whether you want to be trendy, or simply want to make your overall look more cohesive.
Promising business opportunity
From a business perspective, the need to express ourselves via what we wear opens a new business opportunity. This especially true for businesses in the fashion and creative industry. There are already so many fashion brands that take this opportunity and create their own unique face masks. With their creative and innovative ways, these businesses are able to add more value to such an essential thing.
A creative way to share happiness
Face masks are relatively easier to produce and generally more accessible compared to other articles of clothing. When some people cannot afford to buy or create one, others come in and contribute by donating their purchased or personally made masks. Additionally, people are also sharing smiles through face masks by coming up with creative and fun designs on them.
