In 600 AD. Although Greece was a hot environment, the Greek people wore tunics and robes that covered almost all their body. Most outfits were made out of wool and linen, while the rich were using fabrics such as cotton and silk. -
The Proper Clothing
In the sixteenth, seventeenth, and eighteenth century, clothes were very large and elaborate for the ones who could afford it. Hoop skirts and stockings and proper colors and clothes were the primary basis for the outfits. Many dull colors were used because bright dyes like purple, red, and indigo were VERY expensive to buy. -
19th Century
In the 19th century men wore top hats, or homburgs. Their usual attire was trousers, waistcoat and a coat. Women wore long dresses because it was not appropriate for a woman to show her legs. They also had an hobbleskirts so women would usually hobble when they walked. -

20th Century Revolution of Clothes
In the 1920s it was “fashionable” for women to look boyish. However in the 1930s it went back to being conservative. During the late 60s and early 70’s the “hippy” vibe was in. The long skirts and flowy shirts was a way to compliment the hourglass figure of a woman. In the late 20th century, artificial fibers such as nylon became popular. -

Invention of "smart" clothing
Now in 2013, scientists have tested a new clothing material and found it worthy: electronic, touch-screen battery fabrics. Able to charge itself, change the heat of a car with the touch of a finger, and adjust the volume on a music player with a brush of a coat, these formerly hard-edged gadgets have become comfy clothes that are tech-savvy as well. We also believe that the future of clothes will express your personality and how you comunnicate as well. Clothes will become a walking piece of art -
Normal Clothes
Nowadays, the regular person would most likely wear a scarf, some jeans (maybe colored), some fashionable top, and shoes. Shoe brands such as TOMS, UGGS and others like Michael Kors, Jessica Simpson and other designer brands are in trend. Designers like Coco Chanel, Gucci, and Versace play a huge part in how people dress. For kids, there is always Gap, Justice, or Chidren’s place. Land’s End, Aeropostale, Nordstrom, and Macy’s are also popular. -
Future clothes
We think futuristic clothes would be able to skype, check your email, have videos running while still on the person, hold apps, take pictures and videos, and charge devices, as well as heat up on a winter day, cool down on a hot day and talk, like siri, to all household devices. Clothes will be able to have all these while also being comfy. Shoes will have a built in GPS system as well as being able to notice bumps or cracks in the road and warn you to watch your step- before you notice! -
Futuristic clothes con.
We think that not only will the clothes in the future become more electronically able; but also the clothing will represent art more. The clothes will become a way to express personality and what you believe in. Art will be shown more throughout fashion, making clothes something that will be admired maybe in a museum.
