The cost of clothes in the 1900s was very cheap compared to what the cost is now. Men’s shirts where only $2, women’s silk hose was only 49 cents!!! But that was in the 1900s; now the cost of men’s shirts is about $5-$15 depending on what type of shirt it is they can cost a lot more. Women’s silk hose are about maybe $3. The great depression was also a big event in the 1900s. The great depression was when the economy went down a lot to where people could lose their houses.
