Making the Best of A National Epidemic
There is an epidemic growing at such magnitude that, CBS’s New York based, “The Early Show” discussed it in a recent segment. In an effort to raise awareness a celebrity used his popular TV show to bring it to the surface, magazines are publishing articles, and social media forums are gathering opinions. Society wants to know, Is this epidemic a Choice or an economic induced Lifestyle Change?
This national epidemic is no longer confined to private settings such our home, over the years it has gained momentum and is now found in the work place, theaters, malls, schools and high class events such as the opera!
Jerry Seinfeld, dedicated an episode to it, Magazines are reporting on it, Social Media sites have been organized to fight it and CBS’s the “Early Show” featured it. Why is this happening? Are we merely making a Choice? or Is the economy forcing a change in our Lifestyle?
The “Early Show” hit the streets of New York City to get the publics perspective on the cause of this epidemic. After sorting through the interviews it is apparent that this Epidemic has been created solely by Choice, the right we possess as American Citizens, not an economic infliction on our Lifestyle.
Okay, it’s time to unveil the National Epidemic that has consumed this great nation therefore, creating the media frenzy! You may be shocked to know that you are a contributing factor. The question is do you care? I assure you others do! This horrible Epidemic that has taken the nation by storm is “Sweatpants”. Oh yeah, believe it or not people are rockin’ their Sweatpants outside of their home and the gym. This behavior is frowned upon and can’t be accepted by all of society so it’s has been labeled an Epidemic.
Hopefully, you were fortunate enough to catch this segment on the “Early Show”, if not you can check the archive files on their website and see a photo of a model rockin’ High Heels with her Sweatpants! No Joke! Roberts Rassi of Marie Claire’s was interviewed and stated, “If you wear Sweatpants, “You should always dress them up, always, always wear a heel.” He also said “Always wear something tailored, something with a sparkle, a blazer or a sharp shirt.” You know people will actually do this, right! What an astute marketing strategy, transforming a new Fashion Trend from a, so called, “Epidemic.”
Why do I think this is a Marketing Strategy, and a ingenious one at that, because I am a Marketer, and we are always looking for unique ways to present and promote. This nationwide plea for Sweatpant Fashion is the equivalent of a “New and Improved” commercial presentation.
Well, I Love Sweatpants And I’m Not Afraid To Wear Them, when appropriate. I wear them to work because I work from home therefore, I can! As for Roberts Rassi’s fashion advice. I can truthfully say if I need to wear heels and something with a sparkle it will NOT be with my Sweats!!! EVER. If you would like to learn marketing and wear your sweatpants to work without heels or a tailored blazer, then check out my comfort zone.
Stay Comfy,
