How the Boho Chic look started?

The first recognition of Boho style dates back to the end of the 18th century, at the time of the french revolution. Designers were living in poverty conditions caused by the economy which meant they had to resort to old clothing as supplies. This started their creative vision and when the economy stabilized, the artists had more financial freedom. Moreover, the artists began delving into all sorts of eccentric fashion styles. These designers had a tendency to dress similarly to nomadic gypsies from Eastern Europe, specifically from the region of Bohemia. This led to the phrase ‘bohemian’ becoming associated with artistic value, creativity and rebellion.
