In the malls, at the party, on the beach or just about anywhere, off-the-shoulder tops and dresses seem to be a massive favorite. Teenagers and even older women tend to pull off that stunningly sexy feminine look with an off-the-shoulder top. So where did these ladies get this bare-shoulder inspiration from?

Nope, it wasn't the Hollywood stars who set out the trend. This style is considered a classic cut since it has been existent in every 'fashion year'. By saying 'classic', this does not refer to the 1970's or 1980's fashion sense but to a more ancient era way before the retro years.

Let's get a dose of fashion history here. If there's someone who would get the credits for puffing the industry with this style, it would be Charles Frederick Worth. Does he even ring a bell? I bet he does! He pioneered the notable fashion houses in the 19th century making him fit for the title: Father of 'haute couture'.

Even with the shrouded and bulgy look of the 19th century fashion, the seductive bosoms and bare clavicles steal the scene. One thing's certain Worth is given the merits for this timeless trend.
