Questions: Fashion & Beauty

I normally don't ask about men's fashion but Michael Jackson was just so darn popular that I decided to go for something new.

So which way was Michael Jackson best dressed?

Michael Jackson (August 29th 1958 to June 25th 2009)

He lived 50.83 years. He died a little over 11 years ago and would have turned 62 near the end of next month. This is a short time in my opinion. Why do you think he died in his early 50s?

I have been pondering the nature of art and esthetics for a while now.
I think the most interesting questions are about what things are and are not art.
Questions like are video games art? is interior design an art? is cooking and food preparation an art? And is fashion an art?

On one hand wearing clothing is a form of self expression but on the other hand clothing is something you need to stay warm and protect yourself for the elementals.

The clothing you wear tell other people a little about you without you needing to say something. It tells people what you are like as a person and what collective you identify with.
If you wear a shirt a sports team that means you are a fan of of that sport team.
If you wear a Harry Potter tee shirt or cosplay play as a character then that means you are a fan of that piece of media.
If you wear a school uniform or just a shirt with the name of the school that means you are a student form that school.
If you wear a hat with a political slogan on it then that means you are a member of that political faction.
If you are wearing a suit and tie (or a professional dress if you are female) you are saying you have money and have places to be.

Do you think fashion would be considered as an applied art?

Do you think it is okay for women to dress this way for this type of work? Would you have an issue with it or do you think it is unprofessional?

Men, would women dressed on their job like this distract you?

Women, would you prefer to or not to prefer to dress like this if you were allowed to?
