Passage Four
Women’s fashions tend to change more rapidly than men’s. In the early 1900s all women wore their skirts down to the ankle. Today, skirt length varies from floor-length to ten inches above the knee. Women’s shores have also gone through all sorts of changes in the last seventy years. For example, boots for women were very common at the beginning of this century. Then, several years later, they were not considered fashionable. Today they are back in style again in all colors, lengths and materials. In fact, today’s women can wear all types of clothes—even T-shirts and shorts on almost any occasion. While there are some rapid changes in women’s clothing which remained pretty much the same until a couple of years ago, most men still wear the traditional suit, jacket, shirt and tie although there have been more changes about their clothing in color, pattern and variety than in the past.
