A Little Bit of History
Wearing clothes
About 650,000 years ago was when people started to cover their bodies with animal fur and skin as well as bark and leaves. the basic idea was simply to protect the body against the rain, sun, wind, and cold. These primitive clothes were either tied up or wrapped around the body as people went out in the elements to find food.
Needles and threads
There is evidence as far back as 19,000 years ago of needles made of bones and ivory. Around 6,000 years ago, woven textiles (linen) were found in Egypt as well as evidence of silk culture in China 5,000 years ago. These finds mark the early beginning of dress-making
