The emphasis on women's beauty has increased a lot over the past century or so - and women keeping up with fashion have changed with it.

As well as women's beauty being a huge part of women's fashion, there may be a sense of evolutionary instinctive behaviour involved in following fashion. Even from the 1930s, it was noted that gaining the latest fashions was at attempt to "be modern and outdo other women". Wearing the latest bodycon dress or newest style of swimwear could boost a woman's self-esteem, and give an edge over potential rivals.

Entertainment and fun is also a major part of women being interested in the fashion industry. Without the interest of the art of fashion, the industry wouldn't exist. For some it is a way of life, jobs are spawned from the industry and it generates millions every year. What following fashion is to women may be the same as what football, for example, is to men - a hobby, entertainment and a bit of fun. The changeability can be a thrill for both, and keeping up and following certain styles can make women feel involved in a group. Even in the 1930s it was seen as "breaking the monotony of life, and gives one a new lease to appear up to date ".
Whilst there are men out there that do follow fashion, women often have the edge over men when carrying off the latest styles, and often care a lot more about their self-image and what is being worn. However, in an ever-increasing "metrosexual" society, there is room for change - and in another couple of decades time, there could be massive changes with men enjoying fashion and following the latest styles.
