DESCRIPTION
A timeline of workplace fashion featuring styles dating from 1760 to 2013. Click through the slides to see the working world change radically from decade to decade, producing new demands on men and women, and how clothes adapt in function and purpose. The silhouettes remain the same, but hemlines shorten, the suit comes into play, and fabrics and styles change radically, each responding to political, social, or industrial change. You may think fashions are ephemeral, but what you wear to work is a statement – and while everything else has changed about the workplace and how we perceive it, that is something that will never change. If you thought your mum wearing trousers to work for the first time in the seventies was a big deal, how do you think people reacted to the first top hat? Or the very first three piece suit?
