About the Author .......................

Get the Look

Clothes show the world who we are. You might not

think much about fashion when you get dressed in the

morning. But everything you wear started with a

fashion designer.

Grab your backstage

pass. Its time to hit the

runway . Lets find out what

happens before a new dress

lands in the window of your

favorite store.

Head to Toe

Some fashion designers

create clothes. Some

specialize in shoes. Others

may create purses or jewelry.

Some designers do it all!

Models show o a

designers new designs.

A Creative Touch

Fashion designers are creative people. They need

to have a keen eye for what looks good on people. They

study fashion trends . That helps them figure out what

kinds of clothes people will want to buy. They design

everything from T-shirts

to dresses and jeans to suits.

Designers look for

ideas everywhere. They can

be inspired by fashion from

the past. Some designers

are inspired by nature. The

possibilities are endless.

The Long and Short of It

Hemlines, or the length of womens

dresses and skirts, are just one of the

ways in which womens fashion has

changed over the years. In the 1970s,

all three of these hemlines were popular:

the daring mini (hemline at the thigh)

the midi (hemline at the calf)

the maxi ( hemline at the ankle)

Today all three have come back in to style!

Fashion Milestones

Womens fashion has changed dramatically over time. Every decade

has had its own look.

Year Milestone

1800s

Forward thinking women begin to wear pants

known as bloomers .

1900s

Big hats were decorated with feathers, ribbons,

and owers.

1940s

Women wear full skirts. New fabrics make it

easier to wash and wear clothing.
