When you go to the store to buy a pair of shoes, or a new outfit, where did you get the idea to get what you want to buy? Everyone gets their fashion from the same place. There’s a reason why we all walk around dressing similar.
It’s Hollywood, who gives us inspiration to dress a certain way. It’s been this way for a long time. When African American men and women wore bell bottom pants, extravagant colors and Afros it was because of the celebrities they enjoyed to watch. They wanted to be just like them. When times changed so did the style. When the celebrities changed their style, so did the regular populations style as well. When the Afros were played out people went to the jerry curl, and then transitioned to the Fade era. In the late 90’s early 2000’s Corn rows were in style and then they transitioned into Dread Locks. Even the clothes went from baggy and reassembled a jail house theme has now switched to more of a sophisticated prep look. This is all due to the change of style the faces of Hollywood have put us through. We as fans want to be like the celebrities we enjoy to watch. To many people life is like a popularity contest and everyone wants to be popular. Celebrities are the base of whats popular so we strive to look like them. If you don't look like them then you don't fit in. 
It is believed that image makes us who we are. People use clothing to make them look a certain way to maintain a certain image. What you wear is what will kick-start the impression you make on others before you even open your mouth. This is the place from which people will filter everything you say and do. There is a language that is spoken through specific types of clothing. We wear certain clothes to portray a certain image. By having a certain style we are pretending to be something we aren’t so that we can fit in.
