We live today indebted to McCardell Cashin, Hawes, Wilkins, and Maxwell, and other women who liberated American fashion from the 【1】of Parisian design, Independence came in tying, wrapping, storing, and. rationalizing that wardrobe. These designers established the modern dress code, letting playsuits and other active outfits suit casual clothing, allowing pants to enter the wardrobe, and prizing rationalism and utility in dress, in contradiction to dressing for an occasion. Fashion in America was logical and 【2】 to the will of the women who wore it.

Of course these practical,【10】 designers have determined the course of late twentieth-century fashion. They were the pioneers of gender equity, in their useful, adaptable clothing, which was both made for the masses and capable of self-expression.
