Key pivotal event in fashion history which have shaped the today’s industry include:1. The Birth of Haute Couture (1858): Charles Frederick Worth, regarded as the father of haute couture, established the first true fashion house in Paris, introducing the concept of designer fashion and custom-made luxury clothing.2. The Rise of Coco Chanel (1910s-1920s): Coco Chanel revolutionized women's fashion with her introduction of simple, elegant designs, including the little black dress, freeing women from the constraints of corsets and elaborate clothing.3. Christian Dior's New Look (1947): After World War II, Dior's "New Look" redefined femininity with a return to opulence, featuring full skirts and nipped-in waists, helping to restore Paris as a fashion capital.4. Yves Saint Laurent's Ready-to-Wear Revolution (1966): YSL broke barriers by introducing high-end prêt-à-porter (ready-to-wear), making designer fashion more accessible to a wider audience, and launching iconic pieces like the tuxedo for women (Le Smoking).5. The 1970s Street Style Explosion: This era saw the rise of street fashion influenced by youth culture, music, and subcultures like punk, with designers such as Vivienne Westwood bringing bold statements to mainstream fashion.6. The Supermodel Era (1990s): The rise of supermodels like Naomi Campbell, Cindy Crawford, and Kate Moss turned fashion models into celebrities, influencing the culture and perception of fashion on a global scale.7.
