I don’t know completely. For me, Che Guevara was a revolutionary, a free thinker and a complete rebel. He was going through photos of him on the internet and I found thousands of products with his photo and his name. It was shocking to learn that people adore him as a pop culture style icon and wear it in his outfit. I was wondering, what exactly do these so-called cool and modern people know about Che Guevara? How did Guevara become part of fashion, style and trend? So I thought, maybe he makes fashion fans feel part of the revolution, the fight or the philosophy of Che Guevara. Surprisingly and sadly, most people were unaware of the real Guevara! Most of them mistook him for some pop star.
So I started to wonder, when these young people don’t know Guevara, why are they making their products so popular? I was also curious to know how someone can follow a person, from whom he just heard some romantic stories. What I know about the great revolutionary leader is that he represented intellectualism, rebellion and communism. How he got to be so “fashionable” is still a mystery to me.
Well, if you are one of those who just wants to make a cool Che Guevara fashion statement without knowing his history, I will definitely ask you to watch how a medical science student became a martyr. Please don’t be a mother to this field of fashion, don’t idolize it and don’t carry on its legacy until you meet this iconic rebel. It may be, I’m sounding like a fool, that he’s asking fashionistas to really relate to him. But Che Guevara, the global symbol and insignia of youth around the world, is someone you really should wiki over, at least once. I hope you will enjoy your Che Guevara accessories more after reading this article.
