Today we will learn about the 5 categories of clothes that were created thousands of years ago but are still used today by the fashion industry. <\/p>\n\n

<\/div>\n\n

The clothes appear in an amazing range of variations and combinations that range from waistcoats to coats, from tops to below the waist, comfortable but also elegant.

Some costumes were an integral part of political life, while others were designed to functionally meet the demands of successive wars around the world. Only over time do the elements of one type of clothing penetrate the other.<\/p>\n\n

Sheath costume:<\/strong> That is, clothing adapted to the human body. Later in this category will come the pants.<\/p>\n\n

Clothes wrapped around the body were the simplest way to dress. Everyone could get a material, flexible, that they could use to wrap their bodies and create their own clothes. It is no coincidence that the “draped costume” category preceded the others. <\/p>\n\n

They were folded to create folds, nailed or with straps wrapped around the body in different ways. This style ensured that no waste would be made with the fabric, since it was used whole! <\/p>\n\n
