After the 1918 Pandemic Flu and SARS 2002, these accessories not only have medical applications but also represent a sense of health protection and civic duty. Wearing a mask in a public place is a polite act, avoiding accidentally coughing or sneezing on others.

At the same time, when environmental pollution and air quality have become a concern for many people, masks are increasingly useful when helping users filter out dust and bacteria in the air, especially in large cities. People in Australia also started using masks more in the early 2020 forest fire disaster.

COMBINED FASHION ON THE FASHION FLOOR

Leading the "hidden face" movement is designer Martin Margiela. Putting his privacy first, he rarely appears in public, and since the 2000s has often hidden the model's face under a characteristic stone mask. In the last 3 years, some fashion houses such as Off-White, Palm Angels, Bathing Ape and Fendi have all launched their own designs.
