COVID-19 pandemic has significantly changed the way people live. One of the major trends that the ongoing pandemic has fashioned the world over is the facemask. As COVID-19 spread far and wide, wearing masks became an essential part of people’s daily attire.

The apparel fashion industry was fast to catch on to this trend and make it the fashion statement of the era. After one year since the COVID-19 hit and today masks are available in all types, starting with the basic to the most protective and fashionable in a range of materials.
100% cotton material facemasks provide the best ease; 3-layered masks are perfect for protection against various types of viruses and bacteria, a basic requirement from government authorities to safeguard against infection.
An ideal mask is also the one that is breathable and has the least heat build-up. This allows you to wear the mask for longer hours than a surgical mask. So when you are at a party or somewhere out, you can stay comfortable for long hours in a mask that also protects you. Masks that are reusable are considered environment-friendly.
One of the biggest disadvantages of masks is fogging of glasses. This is especially true for those who wear glasses or include sunglasses as part of their attire. There are masks that check this too.

Here are some advices on making a mask fashion statement:
Daily wear: From multi-coloured to neutral range masks that can be teamed with outfit. But the daily fashion need not take a dip and instead it can be a bit more stylish and pick masks with prominent designs. There are masks in different patterns such as floral, forest themes, and abstracts.
Formal masks: These masks are appropriate for office fashion as work from home restrictions are being relieved. Office clothes are always on point and to match the aesthetics, pair them with equally slick-looking masks that have solid colors to go with office dress, shirt or tie. Wearers can also use formal patterns such as stripes and checks that will compliment formals.
Special occasions Masks: Masks that make look like one in a million are the best for celebrations and special occasions. Make a stylish mark at events with masks embellished with gemstones and eclectic patterns. Masks that have delicate thread work in gold and sparkling materials are also trendy. The best thing would be to make your mask of the same material or fabric that your outfit is made of.
Social change Masks: Many social causes showcase their message through masks. If you are one of those who is conscious of your surroundings or a social cause is special to you, you can opt for one of these masks and make any outfit a big message for people to see.
