The History of Fashion
What am I wearing today: shirt or t-shirt? High heels or sneakers? And what do I do with my hair? Questions like these have kept people thinking through the ages. With our appearance, we communicate with our environment, sometimes louder, sometimes quieter. Ever since Gottfried Keller's novella "Kleider machen Leute" (Clothes make the man) everyone knows about the effectiveness of the external appearance. Discover extravagant dresses, bold hairstyles and prior fashion trends with the Deutsche Digitale Bibliothek – in picture galleries, articles and virtual exhibitions.
