The
remainder of this article deals with
clothing fashions in the Western world.
Early Western
travelers, whether to Persia, Turkey or China
frequently remark
on the absence of
changes in fashion there, and observers from these
other cultures
comment on the unseemly
pace of Western fashion, which many felt suggested
an
instability
and
lack
of
order
in
Western
culture.
The
Japanese
Shogun's
secretary
boasted
(not
completely
accurately)
to
a
Spanish
visitor
in
1609
that
Japanese
clothing
had
not
changed
in
over
a
thousand
years.
However
in
Ming
China,
for
example,
there
is
considerable
evidence
for
rapidly
changing
fashions
in
Chinese
clothing. Changes in costume often took
place at times of economic or social change
(such
as
in
ancient
Rome
and
the
medieval
Caliphate),
but
then
a
long
period
without major changes
followed. Another thing that happened change
costume was
technology.
With
technology,
the
sewing
machine
was
created
and
made
mass
production
possible.
As
a
result,
it
made
the
production
of
clothes
easier,
and
cheaper, it also helped
to boost the economy. This occurred in Moorish
Spain during
the 8th century, when the
famous musician Ziryab introduced sophisticated
clothing-
styles
based
on
seasonal
and
daily
timings
from
his
native
Baghdad
and
his
own
inspiration to Córdoba
in Al-Andalus. . Ziryab inspired the dress of Men
and women,
and some people even say the
way they decorated their house. Men who used to
wear their hair long and parted, now
wore it up and a crown around it. The dress of
men changed as well, in the spring they
wore bright colors, loose garments for the
summer, and fur hats for winter.
However, the men were not the only ones inspired
by
this
fashion,
the
women
wore
scarves
which
had
lyrics
embroidered
on
them.
One can
see how Ziryab truly made an impact and touched
the hearts in Spain, and
how the people
aspire to dress and be like him. Similar changes
in fashion occurred
in
the
Middle
East
from
the
11th
century,
following
the
arrival
of
the
Turks,
who
introduced clothing styles from Central
Asia and the Far East.
The
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, today it is
an international and highly globalized
industry, with clothing often designed in one
country, manufactured in another, and
sold world-wide. For example, an American
fashion company might source fabric in
China and have the clothes manufactured in
Vietnam,
finished
in
Italy,
and
shipped
to
a
warehouse
in
the
United
States
for
distribution to retail outlets
internationally.
Within the fashion
industry, intellectual property is not enforced as
it is within
the
film
industry
and
music
industry.
To
inspiration
from
others'
designs
contributes to the fashion industry's
ability to establish clothing trends. For the past
few
years,
WGSN
has
been
a
dominant
source
of
fashion
news
and
forecasts
in
steering
fashion
brands
worldwide
to
be
by
one
another.
Enticing
consumers to buy clothing by
establishing new trends is, some have argued, a
key
component of the industry's
success. Intellectual property rules that
interfere with
the process of trend-
making would, on this view, be counter-productive.
In contrast,
it
is
often
argued
that
the
blatant
theft
of
new
ideas,
unique
designs,
and
design
details by larger companies is what
often contributes to the failure of many smaller
or independent design companies.
Fashion is a term commonly
used to describe a style of clothing worn by most
of people of a country. A fashion
usually remains popular for about 1-3 years and
then is replaced by yet another
fashion. Even though there are a lot of changes in
fashion, most people do not easily
except the changes.
Fashions may vary considerably within a
society according to age, social class,
generation, occupation, and geography
as well as over time. If, for example, an older
person
dresses
according
to
the
fashion
of
young
people,
he
or
she
may
look
ridiculous
in
the
eyes
of
both
young
and
older
people.
The
terms
fashionista
and
fashion victim refer to someone who
slavishly follows current fashions.
It
is
also
very
important
to
acknowledge
Eastern
fashion.
In
recent
years,
a
strong influence of Eastern fashion has
entered the fashion world and pop
culture.
About this, we need to talk
about the contribution of fashion designers in
fashion .
Fashion designers always
attempt to design clothes which are functional as
well
as aesthetically pleasing. They
must consider who is likely to wear a garment and
the
situations
in
which
it
will
be
worn.
They
have
a
wide
range
and
combinations
of
materials
to
work
with
and
a
wide
range
of
colors,
patterns
and
styles
to
choose
from. Though most
clothing worn for everyday wear falls within a
narrow range of
