By 5000 BC, hunter-gatherers had settled in the fertile Nile River valley in Egypt. They farmed the land and built villages, becoming the earliest Egyptians. The Nile provided water for drinking, fishing, farming, and transportation, and its regular flooding deposited rich soil. The geography of Egypt, with deserts and cataracts, protected it from invaders. Egyptian civilization grew prosperous due to fertile land and relative isolation.
Ancient Greek clothing was lightweight and loose due to the hot climate. Men typically wore a tunic called a chiton, while women wore dresses made from large squares of fabric held together with pins. Clothing was made from wool in winter and linen in summer to regulate body temperature. Wealthier citizens could afford colorful tunics, while the poor wore plain ones. Cloaks and robes were worn during cold weather, and most Greeks went barefoot, wearing sandals or boots when needed.
Egypt is located in northern Africa, bordered by the Mediterranean Sea to the north and the Red Sea to the east. Egyptian society was historically divided into classes like the royal family, nobles, and lower classes. Gender roles divided labor between men and women.

move towards softer – silhouette .
A stiffening was done in the dresses with the use
of buckram or paste board and sometimes with a
central wooden busk this happened during the
time period.(1625-1635)
Originally this mantua's was garment that was
open from a front and gradually the shape
changed with the use of hooped petticoat and
underskirt of canvas or linen with rings made of
whale bone or cane.
Between the 1660 to 1680 the bond bodice
developed which was known as corsets and this
was used for the upper part of the dress.

Gabrielle Bonheur “coco” Chanel was a French fashion
designer and a businesswoman. She was the founder and
namesake of the Chanel brand. Along with Paul Poiret, Chanel
was credited inn the post World-War I era with liberating
woman from the constraints of “corseted silhouette” and
popularizing a sporty, casual chic as the feminine standard of
style. A prolific fashion creator, Chanel extended her influence
beyond couture clothing.
57. PAUL POIRET

Beads And
Sequence
Paul Poiret was born on 20 April 1879 to a cloth merchant in the poor
neighborhood of Les Hells, Paris. Poiret’s route into couture followed
the common practice of shopping around one’s drawings in original
fashion designs. In freeing women from corsets and dissolving the
fortified grandeur of the obdurate, hyperbolic silhouette, Poiret effected
a concomitant revolution in dressmaking.
59. FROM GLAMOUR TO UTILITY 1929-
1946
.
From the period 1929-1946 we have the
designer Elsa scarparelli entering and
during this time very simple dress coats
entered because this was the time of great
depression.
The main feature that we see here in this
dresses became longer at the hemline to
the floor length and the roaring twenties
came to a halter.

Elsa Schiaparelli was an Italian fashion designer. Along with Coco
Chanel her greatest rival, she is regarded as one of the most
prominent figures in fashion between the two World Wars. Starting with
knitwear Schiaparelli’s designs were heavily influenced by surrealists
like her collaborators.
63. Most Of Europe Faced A Long Period Of Recovery Following World
War II, But France's Fashion Industry Resurfaced Quickly, With The
Chamber Syndicate Ensuring That The Paris Couture Houses Could
Open And Show Collections. On A Cold February Day In 1947
Christian Dior Showed His La Corolle Collection, Sowing The Seeds
Of Glamour And Creating The Basic Shape Of Fashion For The Next
Decade. In Britain Clothes Rationing Lasted Until 1950, But Mayfair
Couturiers Such As Hardy Amie's Produced Their Version Of Dior's

Christian Dior’s Bar suit, the one with the white
jacket nipped at the waist with a stiff peplum standing
proud of the full, long black skirt with the archaically
padded hips and worn with a white straw hat,
is without doubt the most memorable image from all
of twentieth-century fashion. Long after Dior’s death,
his was the name universally used as a short form
for hugely desirable, hugely elitist couture fashion.
Cecil Beaton named him ‘King Pins and Needles’
and ‘the last of the great couturiers’ and quoted him
thus, ‘Nothing is ever invented. You always start
from something. It is certainly Molyneux’s style that
has most infl uenced me.’

Attitudes Of The Times And This Is Certainly True Of
Fashion In The 1960s . The Decade Was Marked By
Sweeping Social Change And The Domination Of Youth

And Demanded Their Own Fashion Style .

Approach To Fashion ,Boasting Colorful Fabrics And Bold
Designs.
The 1960s Saw Fashion Reject The Conventions And
Niceties Of Previous Eras. Clothing Broke With Social

70. MOD FASHION
Mod, short for ‘modern; refers to a youth lifestyle that emerged from
London during the 1960s, and quickly spread to America, Europe,
Australia. Centered around London’s thriving pop music, art and
fashion scene, the mod lifestyle focused on innovation and the ‘new’
Mod fashion was slim fitting and featured bold geometric shapes.
Colour was also a key concern- the conservative greys, browns and
pastels of the 1950s were replaced by bright wild hues.

YVES SAINT LAURENT
Yves Saint Laurent was, in the words of the man closest to
him, born with a nervous breakdown. Even so he was also
probably the most influential fashion designer of the second
half of the twentieth century, Saint Laurent reinvented Paris
fashion for the young, giving the women of the baby boomer
generation a new wardrobe stocked with easy, youthful
clothes which, in their energy, flirtatious assertiveness and
borrowings, prefigured the social and political emancipation
women were just learning to crave

74. VIVIEN WESTWOOD
•BELL BOTTOM
•DENIM PANT
•PRINTED BELL BOTTOM
Clothing has always reconstructed and modifi ed
the structure of the body and it still does today.
What seems to surprise and upset people is reconstructions
that don’t accord with what they
consider to be the norm, the present accepted
idea of beauty. If you design a dress with a sellier,
the padding that gives it a rounded form has
become a subversive act. Perhaps I mean it to
be a subversive act. Perhaps I want to question
people’s prejudices about what is beautiful,
what makes a lady beautiful. Through fashion I
try to re-evoke the past and refl ect on it.

The long-lasting image of Jean Paul Gaultier as
a perpetual enfant terrible of French fashion took
many years to lay to rest. But now the great iconoclast
of modern French fashion has become part
of the establishment he once shunned
80. ALEXANDER MC QUEEN
Peacock Dress
British fashion has produced countless young designers
full of loudmouthed attitude and shocktactics
clothes. Many of them have sparkled briefl y,
like fi reworks, only to fall swiftly to earth. However,
Alexander McQueen, who could always out-swear
his contemporaries and enjoyed creating a furor
on the catwalk, has proved a designer with staying
power. He is an enduring talent who looks certain
to be a major infl uence in fashion for many years
to come. This did not seem so likely back in 1996
when the young designer upset the Parisian fashion
establishment after landing the job of head designer
at Givenchy. McQueen swiftly alienated the French
by making no attempt to speak French, deriding the
still-revered Hubert de Givenchy as ‘irrelevant’, and
producing a shockingly ill-judged fi rst collection
that even he admitted was ‘crap’. In retrospect, the
Givenchy experience, which lasted for four years,
represented a huge learning curve for the designer.
