Let's Start at the Beginning...Or at least the Pyramids
 | Group apparel is not a new concept, by any stretch of the imagination. One can travel to the ancient ruins of Egypt and observe that dynasties established unity through fashion. Perhaps it was the desire to exhibit power or a sense of belonging to the dynastic community that motivated the leader to incorporate a dress code for his subjects. Ancient hieroglyphics demonstrate a pattern of clothing that provided a sense of belonging and unity. |
"The Redcoats are coming!"
| Paul Revere’s midnight ride is notorious for his reference to the most feared group fashion of the day. He proclaimed, “The Redcoats are coming!” and everyone knew who he was referencing. The greatest military presence was in town and ready to keep their newly found property. Of course, it could be argued that the British Army’s fashion may have been their downfall as the red fabric was an easy target. But, a purchase order for camouflage uniforms sent to the king may have changed the uniform and the British flag might still be waving over much of North America. |  |
Group Apparel Today
Group Apparel is everywhere today. Children wear school uniforms, choirs have moved from robes to concert dresses, and teens seem to dress more alike than the fashions of their predecessors due to the rise of athleisure apparel. To prove this point, simply go to the popular shopping spot and notice the groups of teens who seem to look alike.
Group fashion does not stop there. Sports groups are on the rise. Once considered on the decline, bowling leagues, with their matching shirts, are making a comeback. It is almost considered taboo when someone runs a race or volunteers for an event and a T-shirt is not given. Family reunions, fundraising campaigns, and corporate apparel are branded, embroidered, mass produced, and sold at an ever increasing pace. Group fashion is not going away.
