The changes in fasion with new styles is a seasonal occurance. Years ago the fashion industry changed dramatically. In the early part of the twentieth centrury women wore hats, dresses, high heels, and gloves. The men wore suits and casual wear was not wearing a tie. I believe it was the 1970’s when fashion seriously began to change. I know that I could finally wear dress slacks to work which was marvelous in cold weather particuarly when I walked to work. What also changed was the hat industry. Hats for women became passe’ and gloves simply went out of style. The new styles called for a less formal look and more casual. As women could wear pants in public, ladies stopped wearing dresses and heels to the grocery. Also flats became very popular which was great for doing errands or even walking anywhere. When I was a girl, my grandmother and I would walk to the grocery. She did wear thick heeled shoes that were in style. The other change that occurred is that many churches stopped requiring women to wear hats to mass or service. This changed the haberdashery industry permanently. Women still wear fancy hats to certain events such as the Kentucky Derby. Men no longer had to wear dress slacks and a sports jacket. Casual shoes and plain trousers were the new in. As time went on the new styles turned to bell bottoms, unkempt attire and loose unappealing clothes. Over time, like everything else, it did fade away. I think the worst was one size fits all clothes. It was great for the manufacturers but impossible for anyone petite and thin to find decent clothes. The fashions today are still casual but I think wearing pajamas, slippers, ripped jeans and hats on backwards are still inappropriate. How do you feel about the new styles?
