Women wore tight corsets, layered themselves with heavy fabrics, added farthingales to their costumes, wore huge headgears and just looked pretty. However, men’s fashion did not go through various changes as they were mostly at war. Post the global war period, the pace of change in the fashion industry accelerated, especially in dressing and adorning hair, and became equally complex. Initially fashion change was brought about by trend setters and fashion influencers, which was later adopted by the mainstream and was further, carried forward by people to whom fashion was earlier inaccessible. As fashion reached the average person, it went through certain alterations and the cycle continued again. Though different textile colors and patterns went through rapid changes, the silhouette of the garment changed slowly.
