will customisation of bags, shirts etc be a trend soon?

ive seen a lot of mass produced products on the street and im gettting a lil sick of it..esp people wearing the same shirts, carring the same "i am not a plastic bag" bag. do u think there would be a probability of people going towards customised, one-off products?

Like as in the late 90's/early millenium when everyone was customizing jeans and t-shirts? I'll admit, that was a very fun trend to live through...

i see quite a bit of people getting into the DIY stuff, but i dont think it'll trickle in that much to high fashion stuff.

min180287 · 23-10-2007

hmmm..tt's true. but do u think e market for such diy stuffs will expand in e future?

jun3machina · 24-10-2007

not any moreso than it has, IMHO. there's a definate look to DIY stuff, and generally, if one is REALLY good at it, they either start their own company or hook up with a larger company that can start manufacturing product more readily to meet orders. and then it's no DIY anymore...

I do a lot myself!
And I love it! And some of my friends do to!
But that's maybe because we don't have any money to buy desinger clothes so we just buy cheap t shirts and make dresses out of them!

But I don't know if it could be a trend, because some people are just to lazy/aren't creative enough/ or just love shopping to much and hate making things themselves.

i always admire people who have enough creativity to rework and customize clothes to make them their own

but for the custom-words-and-pictures-on-tshirts thing...its been big with the "trashy set" for a long time (what i mean is the BOBBY's GURRL 4EVA t's
