The best advice I ever got about contests is to not take them too seriously whether you win or lose.

It's interesting to study what the "fashions" are and to understand the thinking of the world around us. We don't want to be oblivious to what is going on or what others think.

On the other hand, every artist might ask themselves whether they would do anything differently even if their style was not popular? If the answer is that no, you would continue to paint/draw/dance/sing the way you want to regardless of the current trends, then you don't need to invest much time worrying about what is or is not fashionable.
