Over the past century, different clothing styles and techniques of designing clothes have emerged and have helped shape the way society views clothing. In the past, there were not many options as to which clothes to wear because of the lack of efficiency when developing them. Up until the Civil War era, many people were stuck having to wear clothes that didn't fit because custom made clothes were only accessible to the wealthy. Tailoring and ready-made clothing has changed the way society perceives clothing and has shined light upon new opportunities for people to express themselves at an affordable price. These new ways of developing and sizing clothing are drastically changing for the better and are the beginning of something much bigger.
