Throw out the centuries, the way people dresses were influenced by the major events in their lives. After the French revolution, people did not wanted to be seeing as an aristocrat, so the women’s laced corsets would be replace by a more natural figure. The Empire silhouette. An Empire silhouette is a high-waist dress, gathered near or under the bust with a long skirt. The origins were from the Greco-roman women’s dresses. In that time the dresses, where called stola.
The First World War made women wear large white shirt with pants, to help them in the factories. In hospital, womens uniforms were white shirt with an apron, a vale with a red cross and a blue cape for special occasions.
By 1918, the Roaring Twenties add began. With less man, because of the World War I, A new style was born! <<La garçonne >>. Dresses and skirts were less long than before and simplicity was the key item. Short skirts that you could see the ankles. The belt was at the lower waits. The hair was very short similar as the man.People were different because of the previous war. Less aristocrats, less riches peoples. The war add ruin them and designers notice the change. To forget the war, cabaret, night clubs were the new attraction. Writers and artists were the new nobles
