Elastic was first used in clothing in the 1820s, in items such as stockings and gloves. Elasticized waistbands in items such as pants and skirts came about in the mid-19th Century with the invention and patent of a machine to create elastic from waste rubber and have been widely used in every decade since the 1920s.
