REDESIGN YOUR EVENT WARDROBE: ANDROID STYLIST AT YOUR
Abstract
Fashion plays a significant role in how individuals present themselves and communicate their values, personality, status, identity, and feelings to others. As fashion evolves in line with changing times and ways of life, it not only involves clothing and attributes that cover the body but also creates an image, personal identity, or social status for the wearer. The fashion industry's aggressiveness in offering various trendy products is especially appealing to teenagers, who are quick to embrace the ever-changing trends. Adolescence is a period marked by significant physical development, during which young individuals become more sensitive to their appearance and aspire to become trendsetters within their social circles.
Traditionally, clothing choices were determined by shared societal values and norms, but this paradigm has shifted towards individual expression and freedom in dressing. This shift has given rise to fashion as a means of regulating how people perceive the social and material world, shaping subjective identities within the community. Furthermore, advancements in media and technology, particularly in Android-based platforms, have played a pivotal role in education and teenagers' engagement with modern fashion trends.
This study aims to assist the community, particularly teenagers in Indonesia, in gaining knowledge about contemporary fashion trends through the development of a Fashion Stylist Application. Previous fashion style applications have been limited in their scope, offering only a few event-specific clothing menus, such as outfits for shopping centers, libraries, and museums. The application developed in this study is designed for Android devices and serves as a user-friendly platform for selecting clothing ideas, saving time in searching for suitable outfits, and becoming a trendsetter reference for today's teenagers. By providing insights into fashion styles appropriate for various events, this application empowers teenagers to confidently participate in various social occasions
