The Evolution Of Fashion
Ciara Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Dare to be diffrent...
Be your own trendsetter...
Is not about the designers or the price, but how you rock it
And it starts with confidence, so for those who have something to say,
Tell 'em: GET IN, FIT IN or get out...
The lyrics to Ciara's song "The Evolution of Fashion" promote individuality and self-expression through fashion. Ciara encourages listeners to be confident in their unique style, rather than simply following popular trends or designer labels. She emphasizes the importance of owning your style and making it your own, rather than conforming to the expectations of others. The line "It starts with confidence" is particularly important, as it suggests that self-assurance is the foundation of personal style.
The line "Tell 'em: GET IN, FIT IN or get out" serves as a dismissal of those who try to dictate fashion norms and pressure others to follow. Ciara is advocating for people to reject those voices and choose their own path, setting a trend rather than following one. The song's lyrics are empowering and aligned with the current cultural moment that emphasizes self-expression and nonconformity.
