Origin of Fashion

Have you ever seen Renaissance clothing?

Enormous gowns with pearls, gems, stones, and laces mended on them. And with lots of layers to make it uplifting. In today’s time what we call a cinderella look. Moreover, men used to wear jerkin, which was close-fitting jacket. But these clothes were specifically for the upper class. But their clothing is worth a talk, at a time when people were not having proper education about fashion still broad shoulders coats, long gowns, and corsets came. Since then, they became fashion influencers for other classes, and they started to mimic their styles. And in this way, fashion started to spread from the renaissance to the twentieth century. 

Today also, whatever is in fashion, is because we have seen some celebrities wearing that on ramps or normally. Or a brand has promoted or manufactured that.
