1920
After World War I go independent and ''out''! They get rid of the old corset and they start going out, drinking, smoking etc. The fabrics go clear, the coats are heavy, the shirts are sleeveless and the neckline is low.The first sweater is now at the shops and the pleats skirts also. The trend is about bows, beads, and flowers. The snuff boxes, and long pipes, jewelery with pearls, hats (klos) short haircuts ''a la garçonne'' are the points of the season.



1930
The sparkle of Hollywood is an end in itself. The fashion in the late 30 shines! Platinum hair, red nails, essential accessories gloves, sunglasses, the trench coats and sideways dresses. Shorts with ankle socks and inflatable sleeve shirt, are the hot styles of the season. Squares jackets highlight the waist and bring the silhouette in the foreground. Also their first appearance are making the platform shoes and bags that look like ''envelopes''.


1940
O World War II dictated the flow of fashion. Everything acquired a more military flow.Padding in jackets and dresses, accented waist, big hats with lace to hide the face. The women wear black and white clothes and pins, and also paint their legs to resemble stockings, drawing up the back "seam" with black pencil. Displaying the pattern and the first prêt-à-porter and there is a bun chignon.



1950
This time she shows her body and trace the men from behind in the queue! Narrow lines, polka dots / printed floral designs, geometric hats and furans under skirts / dresses. The stiletto heel is burning hearts, and so are the panties of Lycra. The strapless dresses, purple mascara, glass butterfly, green eye shadow, and the shank banana hair was in the season.




1960
I'll tell you that : Sex, drugs & rock 'n roll! The Age the mini skirt was discovered . Mini skirts everywhere. Except from mini skirts there were mini shorts and mini dresses! Colored tights, colorful makeup with huge fake eyelashes, huge sunglasses, jewelry, plastic boots up to the breeches .



1970
The season had it all. Punk. Hippies. Love and peace. Disco. Lycra. Vinyl. Leatherette.Nails. Pins ... Yes, and bell trousers and overalls and belts with large buckles. There were also huge silver rings in the ears as a registered trademark, as is the bandana. Heavy eye-liner, black nail polish and complete the eccentric fashion that he wanted to move everything to excess!



1980

And speaking of outrageous ... Here is the decade of excess! The "Dynasty" effects , and the trends: strong and wide shoulder pads! Everywhere dominated by brands that make clothes on bang! Stretch tights and leggings, and of course Revolution in jeans! Faded jeans, torn jeans, denim jackets, jeans everywhere ...The words are images:Skirts lambada, with net tops, tops and dresses with one shoulder out, wide pants, athletic bodysuits, skirts balloon, bat sleeves, leggings, gloves with fingers cut from lace, bows in her hair, standing, multi-colored glasses, badges, huge areas , plastic bracelets, long necklaces, colorful tights ... and naturally thick eyebrows with a huge and tons of hairspray!




1990

And after the appeasement of extreme creativity ... comes saturated. This is the decade that has no specific trends. Simple lines, which vary according to needs. The characteristic time is the constant change in fashion to such an extent that there are not trends, or at least not as striking as those which preceded the past decades
