Lengths of Dresses Adapted for the Crisis?

What happens with the lengths and shapes of garments? In what way can trends be created? Does the trends has something to do with what’s happening around us, of what time we are in?

Miniskirts and short dresses have had a strong appearance lately with the pantyhose quickly following. So after having had this trend for quite a while, what happens?

BUT, something in between is here to, still exploring the “leg focus”…The varied dress length is here, showing lots of legs in front, and has a full length back. This is an evident way of revisiting the late 20’s…

During the beginning of the 20’s the well being in America was excellent, people were enjoying life, women got to experience more freedom (allowed to show their legs for example!) and the financial times were good.

This may sound strange but in a period of time when people could afford to pay for a long dress, it looses it’s interest. What’s exciting about wearing something everyone else could wear? Therefore a short length becomes trendy!

And what about the US-crisis? In 1929 the sensational new length was presented in Paris showing a middle calf length in general, and a full length on evening dresses.
