While moderate of them spend between Rs 1000-2000 and many even spend less than Rs 1000 on styling and clothing as they feel it’s not a very important aspect.
• Teenagers think branded things make them look cool and classy and feel they are much like their favorite personalities. According to them being stylish also protects them from being bullied around. They hide their actual image behind these outts. • The main impact on the teens is the fashion magazines. Teen girls just watch the models and desire to look like them and they will do whatever necessary to look as the models, from dieting to exposing they try out all, but at uncertainty they lose their daily impact and creative thinking.

3. CONCLUSIONS After billions of years of evolution, nature developed inventions has led to the introduction of highly effective and power efcient biological mechanisms. Humans have always made efforts to imitate and have increasingly reached levels of advancement where it becomes signicantly easier to mimic biological methods, processes, and systems. Advances in science and technology are leading to knowledge and capabilities that are multiplying every year. These improvements lead to capabilities that help understand better and implement nature’s principles in more complex ways. Effectively, we have now signicant appreciation of nature’s capabilities allowing us to employ, extract, copy, and adapt its inventions. Benets from the study of biomimetics can be seen in many applications, including stronger ber, multifunctional materials, improved drugs, superior robots, and many others. The rapid growth of research motivation in bio inspired engineering and biomimetics has stimulated huge interest of scientists and researchers to apply it for technological innovations. There has been a spirited past of the engineers, architect and scientist, mimicking nature based design to develop
