History of T-shirt

The concept of T-shirt originated in the USA during World War I. During the war, the US soldiers in woolen uniforms perspired a lot, while they observed that the European soldiers wearing light cotton undershirts, also known as T-shirts were quite comfortable. Owing to their comfort, T-shirts soon became popular in the US. The design of the garment gave it the name "T-shirt". However, the modern T-shirts were designed in 1932, when the officials from the University of south California Trojans football team wanted an economical, sweat absorbing and comfortable undergarment for football players. Thus the T-shirts became very popular among athletes and shortly became a rage among students.

After World War II, T-shirts became popular in the Civilian life and were worn by people of all age groups, especially youngsters.

T-shirts were originally worn as undershirts. This still occurs, but T-shirts are now also frequently worn as the only piece of clothing on the top half of the body (other than a bra).

T-Shirt Trends

The length of a normal T-shirt typically extends to the waist. However, there is one fashion trend of wearing over-sized T-shirts. Although one fashion is for "oversized" T-shirts, namely in modern hip hop fashion (a perfect example of this can be clearly seen in the song, White Tee, by Dem Franchize Boyz). A more recent trend in women's clothing involves tight-fitting "cropped" T-shirts that are short enough to reveal the lower abdomen including the belly button.
