Trends constantly suggest new opportunities for individuals to restage themselves, representing occasions for change. To understand how trends can ultimately give individuals power and freedom, one must first discuss fashion’s importance as a basis for change. The most common explanation offered by my informants as to why fashion is so appealing is that it constitutes a kind of theatrical costumery. Clothes are part of how people present them to the world, and fashion locates themselves in the present, relative to what is happening in society and to fashion’s own history.

1. Do trends represent occasions for change or do new opportunities represent occasions for change?
2. Is "a kind of" used with the meaning of "approximately"?
