1915
At the height of the Belle Epoch was bowing to simplicity and to common sense, and, though details were still elaborate, fussy trimmings and unnatural lines were gradually being abandoned. This trend of simplicity was enormously intensified and sped up by the The Great War, which clearly established two great principles in women’s dress. -
1925
The 1920's is the decade in which fashion entered the modern era. It was the decade in which women first abandoned the more restricting fashions of past years and began to wear more comfortable clothes such as short skirts or trousers. -
1935
The lighthearted, forward-looking attitude and fashions of the late 1920s lingered through most of 1930 but by the end of that year the effects of the Great Depression began to affect the public, and a more conservative approach to fashion displaced that of the 1920s -
1945
For women, skirts became longer and the waist-line was returned up to its normal position in an attempt to bring back the traditional "womanly" look. -
1955
Christian Dior launched the first collection of the House of Dior. The new collection went down in fashion history as the "New Look". The signature shape was characterized by a below-mid-calf length, full-skirt, pointed bust, small waist, and rounded shoulder line. -
1965
Until the 1960's, high-profile designers from Paris and London dictated styles worn by people. However, during and after the 1960's young, common people dictated fashion, and designers would attempt to keep up with the trends that they created. -
1975
In the early 1970's, Vogue proclaimed “There are no rules in the fashion game now.” Instead of brands and following the trends like previous eras, the 70's were about “Freedom”, “identity” and “Personal Expression”. Fashion in the 1970's began with a continuation of the mini skirts, bell-bottoms, and the androgynous hippie look from the late 1960's and eventually became an iconic decade for fashion. -
1985
1980's fashion can be commended for its creativity. Some fashion designers abandoned history, some borrowed from it, while others tried to design the future. Designers abandoned all convention — and their creations were interesting to say the least. -
1995
Fashion in the early 1990s was generally loose fitting and colorful. Unless you were going for the grunge look, then color was the enemy. -
