Can we make this whole article a little less, well, class-centric. This is about what upper-class people wear, with hardly a mention of middle- and working-class fashions. 82.10.98.24015:01, 2 January 2007 (UTC)Reply
As I have said elsewhere, I tend to think of "fashion" as what is fashionable, that is, the clothing of the upper or upper-middle classes. Lower and working class clothing changes on a different timeline, and up until the mid-19th century at least changed very slowly indeed. I would suggest a separate series on working class and rural clothing, probably by country or region, linked to this series.
That said, there is certainly room to add reference to how fashion was modified or simplified away from court and the "big city". How do readers feel in general about incorporating a broader spectrum of society?
