Even just a 100 years ago, it seems like every culture wore their own culture's fashion, even in Europe. When and why did most cultures seem to adopt a similar style (shirts, pants, shoes, etc)
Obviously not everyone adopts these fashions but it seems like more than ever, people generally are wearing the same style.
Thank you. I am having the same question as well. I also notice that there are few places left on this globe where local attire are still worn in everyday life. This includes Afghanistan, Pakistan, some countries in the Gulf, Yemen and probably some parts of Africa. Also among some isolated or remote tribes around the world I think.
I would like to subscribed to this thread.
