She worked her way up from a city filled of druggies and prostitutes to becoming something most people dream of being.

the impact of technology in the fashion industry with greater emphasize on the textile development. An extensive study of technological impact on textile direction and how it has shaped the current fashion trends will also be highlighted in this research.

wishes of feminist. For this research, I’d be using a feminist discourse analysis model by Michelle M.Lazar. A feminist discourse analysis shows the complex, subtle ways in which taken for granted gender roles and hegemonic relations in society are discursively produced, negotiated and sustained in different media and everyday discourses. For this purpose, I’d highlight the basic prejudices and themes in 4 movies along with analyzing some dialogues and posters. In this research, I’d also mention
