  Types Of Clothing A guide to the many different types of clothes Clothing – also referred to as clothes, apparel or garments – are typically items made from fabric and other materials that are worn on the human body. There are clothing ‘types’ based on setting: Business attire – worn for work purposes Casual wear – worn as standard clothing Formal wear – worn for events such as weddings Lingerie – under garments worn for support and / or decoration Sports wear – worn for athletic activites like running And ‘types’ based on gender and age: Baby clothes – worn by babies and toddlers Childrens wear – worn by children aged from 2 upwards Menswear – typically worn by those who identify as men Womenswear – typically worn by those who identify as women But clothing can also be broken down into different types of clothes based on garment:

 To make this the most conclusive list of clothing types, let’s look at the above list of garment types, and break it down further with descriptions and photos! Bloomers Bloomers are an undergarment worn on the lower body, usually with an elasticated waist, and often finished with lace on the hem of each leg. They were created in the 19th century to be looser and more lightweight than the dresses worn by women which were at the time made from heavy weight fabrics. Although not designed by her, bloomers are so called after Amelia Bloomer, the women’s rights activist from the 19th century. Blouse A blouse is an upper body garment, found in womenswear. Similar to a shirt, the blouse can be:

 Blouses are often made from a lightweight fabric than their ‘shirt’ counterparts, and often have more interesting details, such as lace collars, gathering, pleats, pin tucks and more. Think of a bodysuit as a leotard with a snap opening under the legs and you’re on the right track! Bodysuits are usually made from skin toned knit fabrics so that they can offer a little modestly when wearing low cut dresses . Bras are worn by women to support the bust. They come in different styles, with different cuts, shapes and levels of support too. Three plus size women wearing bras.

 The bustier is an upper body garment that fits close to the bodice, with straps on the shoulders. There is not usually boning in a bustier, but it is made up of many sections, similar to a corset. The most famous and easy to recognise bustier is the one John Paul Gaultier made for Madonna! The caftan (also spelled as kaftan) is a loose fitting garment made popular in the 1950s by Christian Dior. Traditionally it was open at the front, though in the 2000s they have often been created closed as a simple pull-on style dress or cover up. Kaftan - Photo by Malcolm Tam We’ve all worn cardigans knitted by our grandmas right? Much like a sweater, cardigans are made from knit fabrics and have a front opening. They can be zippered, but a button opening is more popular. They were made famous in the 1920s by Chanel as part of the two and three piece sets with skirts. A cloak is worn as an overgarment which can cover just the upper body, or be longer in length reaching the thighs, knees or even ankles.

  They typically have slits in the front for the arms to exit as and when needed. A coat is similar to a jacket, but longer in length and designed for colder weather. They’re more of a winter garment and can be made from heavy weight fabrics such as wool, with interlining added for extra warmth before the lining Is added. Historically corsets were worn under clothes such as dresses and laced up very tightly to ‘cinch’ in the waist so that it was as tiny as possible. Since 1987 when Vivienne Westwood added corsets into her collection, other fashion designers have followed suit, and corsets are now a well used type of clothing used in dresses and as separate pieces! Corsets differ from bustiers in that they use ‘stays’ or ‘boning’ to provide structure and support. These can be metal, plastic or polyester boning. A dress is a garment which hangs from the shoulders, covering the upper body area, buttocks and thighs. It can be close fitting ot loose and airy. Stylistic variations mean that dresses can also be strapless, which requires them to be closely fitted to the upper bodice, and can also fall to any length between thigh and floor.
