1. Tattoos are fashionable
WEEK 1: What is fashion?
Can tattoos really be considered fashion or are they purely ‘fashionable’ as fashion in itself relates to a change and tattoos are permanent material? The styles may be more or less in fashion but the mark itself is permanent. If we consider tattoos to be fashion, it is necessary then to separate trend from fashion as trends can change overtime. Or, do we consider tattoos to be fashion because their trends repeat themselves? The barbed wire tattoo has had many comebacks since it was first used.

It is still fashion as the trend can recur. If you define fashion as self expression then it will always be considered part of it. If you define fashion as material clothes then it would be impossible in some way to relate the two.
