Prices have been pushed up sharply by a mixture of roaring demand from China, a crop wipe-out caused by an Indian monsoon and higher costs of fertilisers, seed and transport fuel.

2000s



2000s
In this time of fashion there was a lot of different sub trend a going on and people had there own image of fashion, i have chosen the sunb trends 

Skater
year 2000, a new kind of musing appeared, and a new generation of skateboarders: "the punkers". While skating is about being free, just you and the board, having the possibility of doing endless tricks, and riding in any way you want, punk music expressed this desire of being free and independent and it shouted out loud the needs of a generation. Therefore, the loud rock music merged almost perfectly with this sport. 
Skateboarding is a sport but has now became a trend and life style, where groups of boarders are formed.
 Trucker hats, curly hair, T-shirt, jeans and thick soled trainers. thats the image of a typical skater.

  •  Vans shoes are a major accessory for a mainstream skater image, gives the finishing touch, but they are also made for the use of a skateboard.

  • Nevertheless, skateboarding is not about, looking cool, or doing tricks on a board,
  •  its about hanging with your friends, having a good time while ridding the skateboard, and evolving at your own pace.

  • Sports caps or Burberry caps and hoodies 
  • Sports or jogging trousers, especially white. These may be worn tucked into sport socks, but more commonly they are worn with one trouser leg pulled slightly above the ankle. These trousers are also referred to as "tracky Bs," "trackies" or "tracky bottoms".
  • If female, often wears thickly applied make-up, large hoop or dangle earrings, makes heavy use of fake tan, and has a hairstyle in which the hair is pulled back into a tight ponytail (called a "Croydon facelift" or "council-house facelift").
