Existing Fashion In The World ( Hobble Skirts )

Hobble Skirts

Hobble skirts are designed to slow women from walking. This skirt was inspired from the term for tying a horse's feet together to keep it from running away.  The name for this tight-fitting skirt became popular in the 20th century. Of all fads in fashion of the Edwardian era, none was so provocative - or dangerous - as the hobble skirt. French Coutier Paul Poiret claimed to have created the hobble skirt, but the narrow, nearly skin-tight skirt had its roots in the early 1880s when fashion placed emphasis on the posterior hidden beneath a neat, erotic bustle. However, it wasn't until skirts began to narrow once more circa 1908/9 when the true "Hobble Skirt" made its appearance.

\

In 1914, the hobble skirt was all the rage. To eyes used to seeing women's bodies enveloped in yards of fabric, these skirts were a shocking reminder that women had ankles, legs and derrieres.

While rumors surround the moment when women's skirt's when from heavy and billowing to light and tight-even the Wright Brothers claimed they came up with the fashion when they tied a string around an early passenger's flapping skirt - nobody knows for sure who invented this trend. The skirt's popularity can be traced to Paul Poiret's 1908 designs for select French clients, which featured dresses designed to be worn without petticoat or corset's.

What hobble skirt's wearers gained in good looks, they sacrificed in mobility. As mass-produced copies of Poiret's new narrow, leg-emphasizing skirt hit American streets, women no longer strode or glided. Instead, they took tiny, mincing steps, wiggling their way into a full blown fashion scandal.

A single pleat is made up of a full sett (pattern) width, with an average one-inch exposed pleat. The pleating can be done “to the sett”, duplicating the pattern, or regimental “to the stripe”. If the size of the sett were 8 inches, one pleat would use 9 inches. 42-inch hip measurement requires 4 yards of double-width tartan. Hip and waist meaurements determine the pleating needed.

Weird Fashion

Hi to all readers. Let me say something about fashion. What kind of fashion? I'm talking about WEIRD fashion. Weird mean as strikingly odd or unusual or maybe we can call it strange. Either you mean to say that the clothes are unfit to wear or you want to point out that the clothes are not as per your current tastes. Then, fashion mean the prevailing style or custom. So, why the fashion designers create weird clothes that they don't sale at shops? It is because when you can literally receive hundreds of thousands of dollars of "free" advertising or potentially millions of views of one of your clothing items, the exposure a designer receives for showing an odd piece is well worth walking down the runway. The term weird keeps changing and reinventing itself. Be it clothing, footwear, accessories, makeup, body piercing, trends keep changing. That is what know as fashion. Just because they don't sell at your departmental store, doesn't mean that no one buys them or because just to try it on in an exclusive store you might have to spend your entire year's earnings.
