Various students on campus\u003cbr/\u003eFashion has always reflected much more than clothes. \u003cbr/\u003eIt's affected by politics, geographic and weather conditions, economic status, religion and education.\u003cbr/\u003eThe economic downturn has had an effect on the industry, but students at two middle eastern colleges say their fashion choices are largely effected by TV, and trends in the US and Europe.\u003cbr/\u003eThanks to increased access to international chain magazines fashion trends are merging around the world. \u003cbr/\u003eThe styles chosen by students here at Bethlehem University differ little from those worn at campuses in Europe and in the United States. \u003cbr/\u003eJeans, and in particular, skinny jeans are still a firm favourites here - as are ballerina shoes and branded trainers. \u003cbr/\u003eChristina Hani is wearing blue skinny jeans, an oversize belt and matching bag. \u003cbr/\u003e\"I watch TV a lot and I just look at everything, so if I find something that interests me, I ask for it and I look if there is something suitable for me,\" she says. \u003cbr/\u003eMany Palestinian students say they look to fashion TV as inspiration for their style.\u003cbr/\u003e\"What affects my style is television, especially Fashion TV, I like to look beautiful as it gives me confidence,\" says Watan Salameh.\u003cbr/\u003eAnd it's not just the girls who are fashion conscious. \u003cbr/\u003e\"I take a lot of care of my clothes because that reflects my personality. What I wear reflects what I am on the inside,\" says Nasim abu Eisheh.\u003cbr/\u003eDesigner labels will always be sought after. But students on the Bethlehem campus say the recession has restricted their shopping habits. \u003cbr/\u003e\"The economic crisis affected everyone, it affected the workers also, and it affected my parents, and I still depend on them, so indirectly it affected me,\" says Fida Lahham\u003cbr/\u003e\"The recession affected all of us, specially the situation that we are living in is not that good, so I shop less now than I used to shop before,\" says Rasha Mukarker.\u003cbr/\u003eDespite this, students here admit they go shopping about once a week and spend about 600 shekels ($150 US dollars).\u003cbr/\u003eOver at Herzliyah College in Israel sunglasses are a constant must have. \u003cbr/\u003eAnd just like the Bethlehem campus, students here say their fashion choices are largely affected by trends in the U.S. and Europe. \u003cbr/\u003e\"Companies like Crombie or  H \u0026amp; M you can see students here that are wearing the last things from there,\" says Tom Barnea. \u003cbr/\u003eBut Tom doesn't believe the recession has affected her or her peers' spending habits. \u003cbr/\u003e\"I don't think that the recession has anything to do with the purchasing of clothes.  We don't see it here at campus anyway.
