Who is a "fashion victim"?

A fashion victim is someone who is overly influenced by the latest fashion trends and who blindly follows them without considering whether they are appropriate for their body type, personality, or lifestyle. Fashion victims often prioritize being fashionable over being comfortable or expressing their individuality, and they may go to great lengths to keep up with the latest trends, even if it means sacrificing their own sense of style or personal preferences. This can lead to a lack of authenticity and a tendency to blend in with the crowd, rather than standing out and expressing one's unique personality through fashion. While it's natural to want to look good and stay current with fashion trends, being a fashion victim can lead to a lack of self-confidence and a sense of conformity that can ultimately detract from one's personal style and fashion sense.
