Jingle Bangle History

Ever heard the term bangle (in the context of fashion)? Yes! It is a wrist accessory that is not form of series of chain or beads. Bangle (derived from Hindi bungri (glass)) is the kind of solid circle (aren't like bracelet that is flexible) with many types of material, thickness, and color, the must-wear accessory to complete the cocktail dress according to Jojo's Fashion Show 3 game. According to its native India, bangle is an accessory they divide to two types called Kangan and Chudi. 

Kangan is a thick size bangle which is generally made of gold or silver, and worn as a piece. (It surely gets along with boho style). While Chudi is a thin size bangle that can be made from gold, silver, glass, ceramics, ivory, plastic, or oxidized metal, and worn as a group. In India, Chudi worn as a symbol for newly married women. The Chudi type used by the new bride is generally made of gold or red glass. They were not allowed to take off their Chudi in any condition, even when they're sleeping. It says that Indian women tries to wear as much as glass Chudi they can on their wedding, because honeymoon will end when the last Chudi brakes. Since its meaning is so important, Chudi selected as one of traditional jewelry of India. Ain't that awesome? Here's a little information for you, in my country, you can get a set of oxidized metal Chudi for only USD $5,- since so many Hindis here. Even my grandfather's father is a Pakistan. Hahaha!! (LOL-na nu) Glad to be a quarter Hindis!

At the time of World War II, women wear pants more often with consideration of their husbands’ work they had to do while the husbands were serving in the war. Then why women should wear high-waist pants and not the other models? In mid-1940, women pants not yet existed. So in the year which World War II was going on, the husbands do not only leave their jobs to their wives, but also a collection of their pants, all in high-waist model at that time. In the beginning (late 1940s), women who wear pants in public is considered as embarrassing. But around the same year the women were demanding equal rights between them and men. This triggered two young famous women in those days (Katherine Hepburn and Marlene Dietrich) to take pictures using pants. They do this for some time until finally the use of pants by women accepted in the public. The first women pants massive production was also in high-waist model. Some say this also because women were in a great shape and curve with big hips, small waist, and long torso which gave a great silhouette in high-waist pants. In addition, at that time people believe by having big hip would help women to give birth. People who give birth easily become very important because many victims had died up to a lot of offspring.
