100 Years of Fashion

August 10, 2018

An interesting take on the evolution of fashion over the past century.

It’s no surprise that fashion evolves over the years. The iconic staples from one decade can be a total faux paux (looking at you 80s clothes!) just a few years later. Even if you aren’t a fashion guru, it can be interesting to see the shift in the way women of a certain time period present themselves.

Glam Inc. created a video called “100 years of Fashion” that features a collection of quintessential outfits from 1915-2015. In the beginning, a conservative and stately drapey dress moves to flappers, hippies, early 2000s and everything in between.

While these outfits don’t represent the population as a whole, it’s interesting to see a small glimpse into an average wardrobe from years ago. Clothes can represent who we are as a culture and what’s important to us at that time. When you look back on the outfits of a certain time, they are almost artifacts and this video is a quick way to see 100 years of fashion.

If you’re in the mood for more, be sure to check out 100 years of Men’s Fashion or 100 years of Wedding Dresses to see the way we’ve changed – or stayed just the same!
