Identity: What Fashion Is For Women

So I've been thinking alot about how what we wear reflects our personality, and our Identity,  Women used to use fashion to show wealth and attract a husband, the classes of wealth could be distinguised through what women wore and how many outfits they had. Now in the developed countries clothes are cheap and usually fleeting;  of course there are many influences that effect what clothes we chose; the warmth, current fashion, size, the occasion, price.

I am lightly skimming the changing in clothes over the ages, the cultural differences, and the styles.
