Help kids learn more about cultures around the world with these social studies lessons.
Today, as in the earliest times, people wear clothes not only for warmth and comfort, but also to show their position in society or simply to look good and attract a partner. Clothes of the Early Modern World looks at how fashions changed during the 300 years from the early 1500s to the late 1700s. This was a time when many important events, including industrial and political revolutions took place and these often affected what people wore. Stunning artwork recreates the styles of the time in Europe and the newly colonized United States, as well as clothing from other parts of the world, such as Persia and India.
