Fashion is a challenging issue. It can be intuitively understood as a phenomenon that collects different ways of being and pertains to several domains of social life. The essay aims to scrutinize the processual ground of fashion through the lenses of systemic thinking arguing that 1) fashion is systemic at heart, and 2) several aspects of this multifaceted phenomenon - style, elegance, and trends among others - result from the intricacy of multiple interactions. The continuous relationship between the wearer, clothes, and the environment gives rise to a powerful temporal texture of garments for either the past (the vintage) or the forecasting attitude of the textile items. Fisogni's metaphysical concept, in an essay as beautiful as rare in its comparative and synergistic reasoning, is a metaphor - Marina Nelli writes - It is not the abstract "beyond" of a concrete discipline, but is the profound observation and acquisition of knowledge of the principles and phenomena that establish life and experiences.
