Solution

The correct option is C The world wars
With the outbreak of World War I in Europe, the manufacturing in dress and fabric changed. With the entry of the U.S in war, the clothing of women was simplified to save textiles. Earlier women used to wear heavy clothes and had bulky wardrobes. Wool became a precious commodity and was reserved for soldiers to send abroad. Sweaters, socks were knitted for soldiers.
