Summary

"As far back as ancient Egypt, Greece, and Rome, the way people dress has long been a reflection of cultural beliefs, social status, and individual creativity. Some fashion trends of the past come back in innovative ways. The rise of "haute couture" in the 1600s resulted in a growing interest in creative clothing design. Today, fashion designers display their works of art using models and fashion shows"--Publisher's website.
