After World War I, the idea of the “working woman” became popular. Since 1929, it was more common to see women in a social atmosphere. With the help of liberation organizations, the idea of a “modern woman” began to rise, and soon the “drinking woman” could be seen in business settings.[1] Companies increasingly hosted cocktail parties to have an entertaining environment for employees and customers to mingle. These parties usually began after 5:00 P.M.[2] Since guests are expected to walk around and meet people, clothes made for these occasions are often functional and comfortable. A cocktail dress could be worn to any event in the late afternoon as long as the accessories matched the time of day. This practical and fashionable garment became a popular uniform for progressive elite women in the 1920s.[3]

History[edit]
During the 1920s, French couture’s clientele consisted mainly of American department stores that reproduced French designs and promoted French designers. This caused French designers to create dresses to appeal to American buyers.[1]Since cocktail parties originated in the United States, French designers created their own version of a cocktail dress. However, unlike the strict, professional cuts of American-styled dresses, the French designed much looser and free flowing beach pajamas,[3][4] consisting of a silk top and palazzo pants, usually paired with a mid-calf-length wrap jacket or sheath.[3][4]These clothes are usually worn for more exclusive and intimate gatherings. The French style valued simplicity and elegance in their designs while American style valued functionality and efficiency. American clients wanted a single dress that could be modified to fit several times of the day with the use of accessories.[5] The fabric of the dress and whether it was worn with a cocktail hat differentiated a day dress from a cocktail dress.[3] By the mid-1920s, the hemlines of the dresses were right below the knee rather than ankle-length, which was more common for evening gowns.[3]

The Great Depression[edit]
To take account for the economic crisis, designers such as Muriel King emphasized the importance of accessories by designing simple dresses,[3] which also helped the market for jewelry, hats, gloves, and sheaths. However, after the Wall Street Crash of 1929, private cocktail parties became more popular than corporate gatherings as luxurious lifestyles were no longer seen as fashionable. These elite gatherings helped the rise of day-to-evening fashion.[3]
Post-World War II[edit]
After World War II, Dior came out with the “New Look”, which consisted of a tight waistline, long hemlines, and fuller skirts. This style flattered the women silhouette and created a romantic aura around the aesthetic.[3] Since cocktail parties were so popular, American designers such as Anne Fogarty began to create cocktail dresses that revolved around the “New Look” using less expensive fabrics.[3] French designers, such as Dior and Jacques Fath, saw the high market for cocktail dresses and began to design dresses for American department stores.[3]
Trend spreading[edit]
With the increasing feasibility and popularity of air travel, French cocktail dresses became popular globally.[3] As French women traveled to wealthy resort cities, the designs of their cocktail dresses spread among the American elite. While French couture relied on travel and American department stores, American designers relied on fashion magazines, such as Vogue and Vanity Fair, and the need to dress semi-formally for cocktail hour.[3]
In 1948, Christian Dior labeled this business-casual dress with the term “cocktail dress”. This allowed department store to advertise specifically “cocktail” garments and accessories, increasing the growth of fashion stores.[6] The craze for cocktail culture drove sales in cocktail merchandise as well, such as cocktail and martini-printed fabrics.[3]
