1900s in Fashion $82.85 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles Fashion in the period 19001910 in European and Europeaninfluenced countries continued the long elegant lines of the 1890s. Tall, stiff collars characterize the period, as do womens broad hats and full Gibson Girl hairstyles. A new, columnar silhouette introduced by the couturiers of Paris late in the decade signaled the approaching abandonment of the corset as an indispensable garment of fashionable women. With the decline of the bustle, sleeves began to increase in size and the 1830s silhouette of an hourglass shape became popular again. The fashionable silhouette in the early 1900s was that of a mature woman, with full low bust and curvy hips. The health corset of this period removed pressure from the abdomen and created an Scurve silhouette.
