Clothes

Clothes are the class distinction.The continual adoption of new fashions among the many styles of available clothing is similar to theory of natural selection.  The force for fashion change is the need for social groups to express their unique identity through clothing, which fostered the rise of the fashion industry in the Industrial Age. Fashion culture has always been defined by change, its constant search for the newest design, which gives it a formal similarity with other systems that rely on continuous innovation. Clothing, and more generally, style, can be important non-verbal representations of an individual's status in society.Fashion is an important mark of position in the rise of the  class in post-industrial society. Adopting the latest fashion, such as the high heel at the beginning, can be expensive, which serves to exclude the lower classes.Modern designers generally work within a social niche, although occasionally their garments are transformed by other groups for their own purpose.
