What does Mean " Fasion " :: Let us Understand ::
Fashion is
a popular style or practice, especially in clothing, footwear,
accessories, makeup, body,
or furniture. Fashion is a distinctive and often constant trend in the
style in which a person dresses. It is the prevailing styles in behavior
and the newest creations of textile designers.Because the more
technical term costume is regularly linked to the term "fashion",
the use of the former has been relegated to special senses like fancy
dress or masquerade
wear, while "fashion" generally means clothing, including the study of
it. Although aspects of fashion can be feminine or masculine, some
trends are androgynous.
The beginning in Europe of continual and increasingly rapid change in
clothing styles can be fairly reliably dated. Historians, including James Laver and Fernand Braudel,
date the start of Western fashion in clothing to the middle of the 14th
century, though it should be noted that they tend to rely heavily on
contemporary imagery
and illuminated manuscripts were not common before the fourteenth
century. The most dramatic early change in fashion was a sudden drastic
shortening and tightening of the male over-garment from calf-length to
barely covering the buttocks,
sometimes accompanied with stuffing in the chest to make it look
bigger. This created the distinctive Western outline of a tailored top
worn over leggings or trousers.



The notion of a global fashion industry is a product of the modern age. Prior to the mid-19th century, most clothing was custom-made.
It was handmade for individuals, either as home production or on order
from dressmakers and tailors. By the beginning of the 20th century—with
the rise of new technologies such as the sewing machine,
the rise of global capitalism and the development of the factory system
of production, and the proliferation of retail outlets such as
department stores—clothing had increasingly come to be mass-produced in standard sizes and sold at fixed prices.
Although the fashion industry developed first in Europe and America, as of 2015,
it is an international and highly globalized industry, with clothing
often designed in one country, manufactured in another, and sold
worldwide.
