When was fashion invented?

Fashion wasn't invented, it has always been around; when the first caveman tied his toga he created a fashion and its been around ever since.It is impossible to answer this question with any certainty, as the first written records of people's clothing indicate that fashions -- in the forms jewelry, better fabrics, elaborate hair styles, body painting and particular cuts of clothing -- were already widespread in human societies. Indeed, the practise of ornamentation goes back at least as far as the present homonid species, and possibly farther: shells have been found in the graves of earlier hominids in formations that indicate that they were worn as necklaces and bracelets during life. Whether this was mere fashion or portable wealth or both, it is clear that homo sapiens has always been a dedicated follower of fashion.
