35 Photos Depicting the Evolution of Style Throughout History

It seems hard to believe that the concept of women wearing pants is less than 100 years old, at least in Western culture. Except for practical work environments, women wearing pants was unheard of until about the 1930s. Even then, most women still wore dresses and skirts daily. 

This 1930s photo of a woman wearing wide-leg pants looks pretty normal, but it would have been considered pretty wild back in the day. Forget the fact that those pants are loose enough to look like a skirt. The fact that her bottoms had a crotch and gave the vaguest hint of a leg was considered mind-blowing.
