| Introduction | Welcome to "A Modern Aphrodite!" This blog was created to explore the vast world of fashion and discover how we can be apart of it.Fashion is the type of thing that can do numerous things.It is a form of expression and it is a form of art.I have a passion for fashion and am working towards being a fashion designer. On this blog, I will share fashions that I love, fashions that I create, and newer upcoming designers that need to be recognized. The history behind the name: The name, "Aphrodite," is the name of a Greek Mythological Goddess.Aphrodite, was the Goddess of Beauty and Romance.She came from the sea and, with her absolute beauty, charmed all of the people that saw her.Aphrodite was the epitomy of beauty, love, sensuality, and youth.It was decided to incorporate her name into a fashion site, because fashion comes across as beautiful, romantic at times, lovely, and empowering. As a hopeful designer, I want my designs to have a romantiscm, beauty, and empowerment about them.While incorporating the name, "Aphrodite," one needs to keep designs up-to-date.So then, we conclude with a Modern Aphrodite. Thank you for visiting the site, and I hope you enjoy! |
