In the outskirts of the French capital city of Paris, the season’s womenswear, underscored by an ease of structure and feminine romanticism, paints a picture of the contemporary state of fashion.

The Feminine Slant To Contemporary Womenswear

Beyond its frivolous fancy, much credit is due to the realm of fashion for its overtime function as a barometer of the greater cultural zeitgeist, more pertinent than the garments themselves. In retrospect, this crossover between fashion and social politics is nothing new.

Distinct shifts in the wardrobe of women have long been coordinated to their call to battle in a society. In the early 19th century, women revolted against timeworn stereotypical binary conventions of gender by adopting trousers into their staple wear. The choice of clothing rode on the feminist undercurrent when women blatantly displayed their fight for equality and emancipation — men were, literally, no longer the only ones who wore the pants in a relationship.
