Welcome to Cyclicity – where the cyclical nature of both fashion and history meet!
As a historian I have always maintained the notion that history is cyclical. As my interest in fashion has grown, I’ve noticed that fashion is cyclical as well.
Lately, it seems like the majority of fashion trends are some kind of homage to the past – with the ’90s inspiring a surge in chokers, slip dresses, and overalls, while the more recent trend of maximalism borrows the large statement ruffles, sleeves, and colors of the ’80s.
This blog is dedicated to the theme of fashion history’s cyclicity, as it explores the history of today’s current fashion trends.
I invite you to join me and delve behind the velvet curtain of fashion to discover the history living inside its inspiration.
