1910s The Great War


 During this decade it was well known as rich and exotic in the first half of the decade in contrast with the garments of the great war.
During these early years 1910's the fashionable sillhoette became much more of a trend.
Early in the period, waistlines were hightwaisted ( Just below the bust ). Hip lenght "Lampshade" tunics were worn over narrow drapped skirts.

Fashion Changed during the world war it was known more as a nessesity other than fashion. Throughout this time period materials such as silk, lace and satin were lacking in production, as the war was impacting, people were tight with money, this made times change dramatically as more women were forced into the work place and was hard for them as they demanded clothes that suited there individual activity.
