The fashion industry is a product of the modern age. Sometimes the broader term “fashion industries” is used to refer to myriad industries and services that employ millions of people internationally. However, the fashion industry encompasses the design, manufacturing, distribution, marketing, retailing, advertising, and promotion of all types of apparel (men’s, women’s, and children’s) from the most rarefied and expensive haute couture (literally, “high sewing”) and designer fashions to ordinary everyday clothing-from couture ball gowns to casual sweatpants. There may appear to be differences between the expensive designer fashions shown on the runways of Paris or New York and the mass-produced sportswear and street styles sold in malls and markets around the world. Fashion is best defined simply as the style or styles of clothing and accessories worn at any given time by groups of people. Some observers distinguish between the fashion industry (which makes “high fashion”) and the apparel industry (which makes ordinary clothes or “mass fashion”), but by the 1970s the boundaries between them had blurred.
