handmade and mass produced

dear steve, seeing as you are not here, here is what we talked about...
so, my focus for the debate was the idea of clothes losing their sentimentality and original meaning and the idea of not relying on designers to provide personalized garments, but personalizing them ourselves so they have meaing for ourselves.
To me, the point of fashion is to stand out, but also people are looking for somewhere to belong. So is there goin to be continuous pull between the desire to the stand out and the need to fit in?
Is it not more personal and meaningful for us to personalise a mass produced garment, than buy someone elses sentimentality in the form of a garment?
you guys decide
