Get ready for a lesson in fashion history! In this class we are going to see the splendor and saga of styles through different time periods. At the end of class, you will get to design your own piece of vintage clothing based off of the information we discuss in class.

We will do a brief introduction to different fashion in different eras.
We will walk through a timeline of different fashions and even discuss theories about fashion in the future.

The different time periods & fashions we will discuss include:

- Hats and accessories 
- Elizabethan Era
- Victorian Era
- 20s- 80s
- Future of fashion (Steampunk / Futuristic) 

I like to facilitate my class with guided discussion through questions and answers. Small lectures about each era will take place allowing time for questions and opinions to be discussed in class. This lesson will include some videos on fashion and a slideshow to go along with the lesson. 

To conclude the class, we will discuss ideas for an outfit by playing a game of “Fashion Mash Up”. Each student will randomly be
assigned a different article of clothing to design around a different Era. For example, “an outfit in the 60’s” or “A hat in the Victorian Era” or “A dress in the future”. This will be different in each class. It will be a great way for students to stretch their creativity and apply their knowledge from the lesson.
