About this course

This online course aims to give the learner a visual tour of fashion through 120 years starting during the Victorian period in 1850 and finishing in the 1970’s. You will gain an understanding of how fashion has changed during a hugely pinnacle time in fashion history. How the female silhouette has changed through this 120-year period as women’s rights have come to the forefront. It will also cover how the socio economic and political climates at the time impacted on the fashion in each decade and the development of the fashion industry following the industrial revolution. 

We will look at:

  • How the woman's silhouete has changed through the years
  • Impacts on fashion throughout the years
  • Key designers from each decade
  • The fashion industry and how it has changed and been influenced
