I'm surprised there was no mention of super short jean skirts in the 2000s
Rachel Lee right! Or the mini leather skirts of now
With black capri leggings underneath oh that was a look
Because that was a thing in the 1970s?
Now, the same ones that would wear that just forget to wear the skirt. /headdesk
Rachel Lee or skorts lmao
Imagine going back in 1892 wearing crop top, skirt, and sneakers 😂😂
PJ Balino they would literally have arrested you and wrapped a blanket around you. Not even joking. 😀
"Witch! Witch!"
" WITCH" , "embarrassing", " Shame to your Family", "Vulgar"...
See you in jail 💀
*Wears a tanktop and shorts*
"SHAME ON YOU! HOW DARE YOU SHOW SO MUCH SHIN?!"
The 1950s dress was really pretty
Ik I love them
i liked the 1960s one
@@annamarusarz7628 how?
It's not even s h o r t
true, especially with those fancy gloves
I know right!!! 😱😭
I think the 2000’s should have covered two hemlines! The asymmetric one and the extreme short one! Like literally the skirts back then were barely even thicker than a belt! And do I have to mention all those paparazzi pics of female celebs panty shots?? Like come on!😂😂😂😂
Yes I remember literal frills as skirts, and that's when Paris Hilton was at her peak :o teeny tiny!
1920s skirts were DEFINITELY NOT OVER THE KNEE. Sure they looked like they were when people are sitting, but they were below your knees normally.
I think the dress was to short for the actess
@@uma5467 yeah maybe, but they could give the 1920s dress to a shorter model then
Ew your pfp
@@poubear7659 um??? I didn't ask abt your opinion & you srsly never heard about junji ito??
True. Only dancers and prostitutes would have worn a dress showing the knees.
Also, let's take a look at the face: It went wild at the time as it had only recently been allowed and became trendy. She should have more blush, her eyebrows should be much darker and longer down to the sides.
The pear necklace was common but the hairstyle? Also, she could have had a hat on top - especially the girl before her representing the 1910s. They had ridiculously extravagant hats, huge and decorated with feathers or even an entire dead exotic bird.
They were so disappointed by the 2000 micro mini skirt and denim skirt, they just left it out. A dark time for us humans
God was probably disappointed by people with an overrated, low quality, actually pretty boring mobile game
Micro miniskirts and denim skirts are not to be mentioned!
AlishaAnimations * a denim skirt is a type of skirt, not a hemline.
JumpLuv bro why u mad 😳
As someone who used to own a demon miniskirt, yeah. That's a no.
The 2000’s was such a dark time in fashion I think we should stop talking about it
Sierra Alice the 80s used to be the dark time of fashion. Once it stops being fashionable for hipsters, I think it will regain it's throne.
Sierra Alice right tho 😂
Except for the mini handbags and chopsticks in hair
Sierra Alice right deadass lol
Speak for yourself! I love funky skirts, headbands, and accessories galore!
The 1920s gown was too short...it “crept up to the knee”, meaning the absolute shortest they got (unless you were a dancer or a prostitute) was just below the knee-and that was definitely not the norm, only for the famous flapper movement, but it wasn’t widespread.The model’s dress was above her knees.
Y'all need to make it clear what country you're talking about
StickyLabel7 I think America
@@librapotato1414
Definitely America
america. what else
not fabienne Britain no! It’s America but it maybe Britain but I think it’s America
I assume everything is America
The 1990s one I would wear 24/7 🤩 but literally 2000s - 2010 looked nothing like that it was short skirts lmfao
abi r x there was super short skirts and skirts that length so “nothing like that” isn’t right
Well, I had that exact dress back in 2003 but I know what you are talking about.
mabel heart jesus sorry mum
the 2000s looks like something my mom would wear 🤢
@@itsjusttnohatesyou I think my mom looks good on those.
“hemlines dropped as the economy tanked” we LOVE a realist!
should of been "hemlines dropped as did the economy” or something funny like that
Hem lines dropped again as the economy tanked in 2009 too.
Yeah that was just an attempt at making a current political statement. Meh.
But economic depression often leads to a rise in more conservative values (for the time)
There's actually an economic reason for this. Most people wear tights/pantyhose under their skirts if they're short, knee highs if they're long, and socks if they're really long. Skirts are fairly long-wearing, that is, they can withstand many wearings and washings without becoming so torn and worn out that they need to be replaced. But the undergarments are thinner and tend to wear out quickly. If you wear a long skirt, you can hide the parts of the hosiery that tend to wear out the most and replace them less. Holes tend to form in the joints, like the knee, and along the seam that joins the crotch. You'll notice that oftentimes when skirts get longer, so does footwear- this is also to save on the hosiery!
There's actually a whole thing about this and how when the economy and political climate get bad, skirts get longer and clothes less form-fitting, and there are lots of suggestions for why that may be. It is cheaper to dress like that, but it might not all be financial. Some of it may be about fashion changing to reflect fear. When people are afraid of things, they tend to wear clothes that are loose and cover more of their body- perhaps for the same reason that when people are scared they tend to hide under blankets. There's a psychological component to it.
I thought you would have a denim/leather mini skirt at the end !
Gwen Nakagawa why? They wore miniskirts in the 60's.
+Katie Bayliss because they are really popular now as well :) I’ve seen lots of denim skirts recently like mid thigh length
The hemline that they've shown for this decade is spot on i think. I never knew but realized now that most of my dresses have hemlines that stop mid calf. Good to know why now ! :)
Denim skirts are ugly
Alyssa Curry Not the ones they make today they can be really cute you just have to find the right one they can’t be ugly but they’re not always
Who else expected that hemlines would be the shortest in 2010s?
*would
Malvavisco Thanks for pointing out.
Yahya Mateen skater skirts though
Yahya Mateen i thought 2000
Yahya Mateen 🙋🏽♀️🙋🏽♀️🙋🏽♀️🙋🏽♀️🙋🏽♀️🙋🏽♀️
We can all agree that the 2000s was in all a fashion mistake and that the 50s were the best at fashion
Fandomz While I like the dresses, the 50s are probably among my least favorites for haircuts
@@dundee6402 I rlly like 50's and 30's ones
Yes! The 50s definitely was the best
Well look at the 60s and 90s thats so cool
The 70s is usually not that great either. Same with the 80s
1920s were below the knee.
Rosa Fabian yep/
I think the dress was original but too short for the actress
THANK YOU
Rosa Fabian they showed a picture of a flapper wearing a below-the-knees dress
1910s: *gasp* ankles
1920s: *gasp* knees
Haha
2010s: gasps pants
Lmao
a representation of the school dress code lmao
2010s: *gasp* asscheeks
Not gonna mention micro-minis of the 2000's, or denim skirts? And the 2010's one was not accurate at all. The high-low skirt or skater/circle skirt would've been way more accurate .
Chanel Donut ugh. Now I'm having horrible flashbacks of high-low dresses at middle school dances
FACTSSSSS
What was those big black shoes i love them Whats the name of them? I wanna pair
Amber Hill Doc Martens, If i remember correctly
@@aneiasl ok :3
The shoes in the 1990s one, I love them and want them.
same! they're so cute
samee
Those are literally my school shoes now though ngl
Yeah
44EllaBonbon44 you can probably get them on the dr Martens website btw sorry for responding veryy late
They wouldn't wear that much makeup in the 1910s, if not any. Also, the skirts of the 1920s were way longer than right below the knee. Most were still mid-calf or longer. Skirts didn't start rising up a lot until the late 50s and early 60s. You guys really need to do more research.
Brighten S. 👏👏👏👏👏
their research was probably films depicting the 1920s, and the hemline, and excessive makeup, was more for looking better on camera than being accurate.
What about flapper dresses?
The TasmanianTiger flappers/flapper dresses were not the norm
And you know because? These people are professionals so shut up
abbey buckingham Theyre professionals, yes, but they’re professionals in THIS fashion era. There are literally people who study fashion history who can verify that 1920s, 1950s representation is false. Karolina Zebrowska has made several videos on this topic :)
All these models are gorgeous.
Leo Gan Hot mama look at those... Dresses!
Leo Gan who would have thought??
jiBOOTY army?
Probably why they’re modeling this video
I mean, they are models
ok but people don’t realize that that 1920s flapper style was a taboo and not a widespread trend at all
lily kathryn smith same in the 60’s
And hemlines in the 20s didn't creep up to the knee until 1926, and above the knee until 1928, so most of the decade wasn't as short as they were describing it
Yeah, I was about to comment the same thing!
The hemline was also *clearly above the f*cking knee*. So it was too short!!
Yup..."flappers" were a small minority of women. The average farm wife or secretary wore dresses that reached mid calf, and most still had long hair as well.
No mention of the high-low skirt that became popular a few years back? um okay...
Because it was a thing in the 1920's www.pinterest.com.au/pin/550494754443896917/ and in the early 1800s as well:.
The mullet skirt 😂😂
High low counts as asymmetrical
My junior prom dress was a high-low fluffy lavendar thing. Fashion-wise? Not proud.
The mullet of the dress world
I love the tea-length dresses of the 1950s
same
I fell in love with that dress😂
I think it’s very floral, somewhat modest, and calm. That’s why I like it so much, it reminds me of nature
I love 1950s fashion, it’s just so wholesome and clean
Me too
I agree. Such a classy era.
Yeah, love those rockabilly and floral dresses ! They are so fancy
The 90's shoes are so cute omgggg
no.. just no.
Ikr
Just buy docs
2010's is so inaccurate... I expected a short jean skirt or a leather one idk, but DEFINITELY not that dress.
Jean and leather skirts would have been more fitting for the 2000's
I agree with the jean idea but not leather. It would probably be a plaid if anything.
I feel like that hemline has been a trend for just a couple months- maybe a year or two, but certainly not the whole decade. I think even maxi skirts would be more accurate
Haven’t seen a leather skirt in years
Honestly the 90s trend are really back in style
Yes they are
It's hard when you get to the last 20-30 years to realy name one 'defining' hemline for each decade. Especially in today's globalized world of fast fashion trends come and go within a few weeks.
true but some truly defining ones that were left out were 2000s micromini skirts and the mullet skirt
The 1990s outfit is basically what everyone's wearing now
To equate the 2010s' longer hemline with political climate is just ridiculous. Longer hemlines don't equal repression. We are past that. Now hemlines are a matter of aesthetic preference.
I also thought it was in relation to the modesty movement that many arabs and muslims were sporting as hey follow fashion icons such as dina tokio o-o
It might be referring to the aftermath of the 2007-2008 recession which destroyed the economy
Hemlines have always mirrored the economy because of fabric costs... it's not a personal-political statement, it's economic-political.
ASB Exactly!
aimmyarrowshigh Fabric cost? is stupid to even think like that in this decade...
1920s knee length was very extreme and not at all a norm....
Lilly Newsom exactly
Thank you! It was usually under the knees and mid calf...
But a lot of women still wore skirts that short
No, they didn't. 20's dresses were not knee-length literally ever except the few outsiders that were considered disgusting. Knees weren't shown in fashion until the 60's.
Yes..this part was not accurate...like the 2000's. Almost nobody showed their ankle. Even in that picture the girl wasn't showing her knees. I hate how they present the 20's .
The 2010s are more of a boho style, loose and flowy. They got the floral print right, but the neckline is way too high and the sleeves are too tight. It’s all around too tight and conservative to match today’s style.
Boho salon on roblox is ghae
The hemline is also too low for the style of the dress tbh
1950's fashion was so classy & beautiful.
2000s fashion was definetly the ugliest...
You probably weren't around in the 2000s you're completely wrong they always show the worst things for the 2000s there were way better looking dresses for the 2000s. And even that one weren't as ugly as 1910
Just because 1 model wears a long skirt in the 2010s doesn't mean it's popular 😂😂😂
True.
Thank you for noting this. That's what always irritates me about these videos 😊
It is an ugly dress
H- SB
Nah, you just have different taste, that doesn't mean it's ugly
Well it WAS popular but in the video they're not focusing on just popularity but the main focus is the date but no hate though! Your opinion is still true ^-^
Uh... I'm a teenage girl and the longest hemlines I can find are usually well above the knee
Jessica Mason Maxi skirts are offered in literally every large teen-ish clothing chain (forever 21, Urban Outfitters, h&m) and stores like target, Marshall’s, Macy’s, and any large store. Hemlines are really variable now but I’ve noticed longer skirts becoming more popular.
I've never seen someone under 40 wear a skirt longer than the knee. Thin people usually wear super short skirts just because then can and everyone else doesn't wear skirts or dresses at all.
Jessica Mason really? All my skirts I find in places like target and are below the knee!
Im 22, all of my skirts are midcalf. Paired with crop tops and vans and im good to go.
I think the fashion is for shorts to be really short, but skirts are generally quite long. There will always be exceptions though.
2010 LOL LAUGHABLE
Yeah. All I see are women’s behinds
I mean, that dress style certainly is a trend. But in 25+ year old women, typically.
Most younger women wear things at the knee or above it.
Roabie not anymore its not like 25+ its like 11+
i dont see what’s wrong
i mean basically u name is laura so i dont how u could rly understand fashion
I was a teenager in the mid-90s and long skirts were extremely common then - yes, some women wore miniskirts like they had done in the previous 3 decades but long floral print skirts and dresses were common too.
I feel like the 2010s should have covered 2 options like a super mini skirt lol 😂😂
It's called micro skirts and I agree I only wear micro skirts and I rarely see long skirts
2:28 If that's a mini skirt then girls at my school out here wearing strings😂😂
1940’s women wouldn’t have worn green dresses very much due to the amount of green dye being set aside for the war materials BUT THATS NOT THE POINT! GREAT VIDEO😁
Fun fact, though!
The more u know
No, it was not the first time it revealed a woman's ankles. They were on display in the late 18h century and the 1830s.
Elizabeth thank you!
Thanks for noting this! I'm not the only one annoyed by that. It also rose above the ankle a few times during the medieval times, especially for peasant women so they could move easier.
It was quite prominent throughout history that the lower class women had higher hems, mostly for purpose as you said, but also as they could not afford enough material earlier back in history.
Did you guys study skirt lengths or something
@karin prince I'm annoyed because the most random of things annoy me. Why did you chose to single me out out of everyone here?
Also your horrid English is annoying me too, I can't understand half of what you're saying.
The 40s and 50s dresses are just beautiful and I wouldn't mind wearing it daily❤️❤️❤️
I can't help myself, I just love the fashion of 1950!!!
Really? The 2010s on is very inaccurate. I see no one with that length. It’s not cute it’s matronly. Reese Witherspoon is in her 40s. She’s not exactly a fashion plate.
tndrlytastefully It wasn't really common in 2010, but it seems to be now. I've been seeing many dresses in all kinds of stores that have that type of hem (and this was in the petite/juniors sections). I was actually pretty shocked by it. But so far I haven't seen anyone actually wearing them yet.
I think the style of dress they showed for 2010 wasn't all that great but the length is definitely something I see around, perhaps because it's my personal preference I'm just more likely to notice others wearing it?
true, it should be longer to meet the huge trend of maxi skirts
I think those body hugging skirts that go half way down the thigh should be there
Now many girls (especially in Scandinavia) wear dresses and skirts that length
Don’t know if anyone commented this but the 1910s dress was not the first time a dress showed a woman’s ankle. Working class women back all throughout the 1700s had to make the hemline up to 1 3/4” above the ankle to avoid the petticoats ans dresses dragging in the mud and getting dirty.
the 2000s dress just reminds me of zack and cody's mom hahahah
The 50's style dress'hemline was just beautiful! I love the way it flowed to a very wide skirt at the bottom. It would look so flattering on anyone who wore it
I just LOVE the 50’s style 😍
Actually, the 1910's are not the first time skirts showed the ankles. Hemlines have risen and fallen a bit over the centuries. (Although never being shorter than ankle length before the 1920's) Especially in the 1830's hemlines were quite short.
Was going to say the same thing!
Yes! also in the 1770s-1780s, and 1880s the skirts rised a little bit over the ankle.
When the 80s lady came out I couldn't help but smile & remember the dresses that my mom & her friends all wore :)
Okay, but is nobody going to talk aboUT THE 1950'S GIRL? LIKE OMG SHE'S TOO BEAUTIFUL, I MEAN LOOK AT HERRRRRR I LOVE HERRRRRRRR❤❤
kaep jjang! I know right?!
This 50s woman s style needs to come back
does she have an instagram cuz shes gorgeouuuuuuuuuuuuussssssssss
Army ?
Blblbl 1950 💜
I've lived through half of the 70's, 80's, 90's 2000's to present . Mini skirts have been popular amongst ALL of these decades .
90’s the best 💗
Yassdd
artistocrat I’m loving how it’s coming back! That clueless aesthetic is the best!!!
SuperSweet all of my clothes are inspired by cher 😍
100 years of glasses
Alice Duarte YESS!!!
Yess
I don't know about glasses. They look the same for the past 100 years now, and still do their purposes:
For drinking.
For 2010s, I would have chosen a High-Low Skirt (sheer optional).
Queen Remains mini skirt with a high-low sheet on top? Triggering
Just a note of historical inaccuracy, womens dress had been showing ankles for hundreds of years, notably during the 18th century with the fashionable robe a la polonaise.
I really liked the 1950 dress. That is my kind of style -ish-
So where are the really short skirts? Because I remember those being pretty trendy
Video about hemlines, yet they still shows the stylist focuses on the models make up and hairdos that already been there.
They are *WEARING* the clothes. So what is your problem. Makeup is still part of the world. Doing your hair, IS PART OF THE WORLD. So, I don't get it. -_-
JamiPie MSP if you dont get what i mean, so you dont need to push me with your words. All im saying is im not even complaining. Just.... they focused to add more scene of doing the make up and hairdo,
It was to sort of help accent the era they were doing, to complete the look in a sense.
chuuchu you still get the general idea so relax
1950’s are so beautiful 😍😍would travel back to that time if I could
Dead lol yes
I would but I’m black
:)
2010s is really inaccurate.
Les Anderson it depends on your style, some suit the midi skirts, some like the short skirts.
It's Jowke but the video was based on popularity and trends and i think we can all agree here that skater skirts,denim ripped skirts,checkered skirts or just any short skirts in general are way more popular than the long ones. i mean just go on instagram for a few minutes and you'll see for yourself. Ive never seen someone under 40 wear a dress as long as that
what no way skirts have been the longest since the great depression!
Absolutely gorgeous! I love how the trendy dress styles have changed over the years in western history! They're all so unique. I just love how the 1950's styled dresses puff out!
Starched petticoats with many layers of ruffles will do that
Loved the 1950s dress
and model
I really like the current hemline they showed. Long skirts are a hassle, but so are short skirts. Flowy + below the knee is perfect.
Midi skirts are my favorite!
One could never go wrong with a midi skirt. I prefer skirts with pockets in dark tones. They're so versatile I wear them with button ups, blouses, tank-tops or band-tees.
Agreed.
90’s yes!!
You dont sayyyyyy
The length for the 90's dress was what the 20's one should've been..
Maxi skirts were extremely popular in the 1990s, worn in a grungy way with chunky shoes.
i love 2000s style so much, even though people think its tacky. i hope it makes a comeback
Everywhere you look there’s a hem
I need the 1940s and 1950s dress in my life
The 1990’s is what I wanted my school uniform to be when I was like 6
Same tho
I love 1940 and 1950's dress 🐤💖
Oh my goodness all of these models are BEAUTIFUL
2000's was possibly (in my opinion) the ugliest fashion trend anyhow but I don't think that reflected 2000's fashion at all like I would've said some Paris Hilton type outfit with a denim skirt cause that's not very accurate
i think everything in 2000 was an explosion and combination of just about everything it was a mess😂
It really was the ugliest
4:00 en el 2000 Martha es una lombriz!!! 🎶
Jajajjaa perdón me emocione
1990 so beautiful!!
The 50s style has got to be the most universally flattering style in existence.
Karolina Zebrowska approved this video. It is, therefore, accurate.
shinigamie Except the 1920s. *nOooOOoo0ooOo*
our queen
Thanks for including 1910s..
Janelle Northcut the very first one is the 1910s
i think we forgot about the trend in the 2000's where we would wear skirts so short that we needed pants under them
Right--I remember that!
2000 sure was a time that I don't want to remember
The 50s dress was so pretty! I wish I owned one.
40's and 50's were the best!! Women looked soooo beautiful and with many style.
I loved the 1910 boots

Zion Albright It isn't?
2010???? 🙄😂😂
I love the 10's and 30's dresses, they're the most historically accurate I think
I remember the asymmetrical skirts when I was in middle school back in the early 00s. I had a couple of those.
Mini skirts and long skirts be fighting for the glory
I like the 1950s one for sure
I liked 1950s dress the most
omg the 1950's girl and outfit were both so cute!
My favorite is the 1950 dress; it was so cute!
