Fads are a huge phenomenon in the fashion industry. Fads are known to become immediately popular, then quickly fade. An example of a fad is the "bob" haircut of the 1920's during the sexual revolution. The social norms and structures of society changed during the 20's not only because of the revolutions but also because of the fad's women took part in, changing the typical norms. Women wanted to show their masculine side by trying to push away from gender roles. Women wore looser dresses and cut their hair shorter. "The term 'fashion' implies 'strong norms' (Crane, p. 1), and although this criterion may also apply to fads, these norms are of shorter duration and within a more limited population."
