Post 1921 Fashion Trends
By now, every woman who has any awareness of fashion history will be fully aware of the huge impact the 1921 fashion trends had on the way modern women dress today. This article will discuss how these trends shaped the way women dress for men and women today. The fashion styles that were popular in the 1920s were characterized by flappers, who loved to wear sexy clothing that showed off their feminine curves. These flappers could be seen often walking around the roads of fashionable London with a number of their male friends. This is clearly reflected in images such as those that we see in black and white photographs.
So how has this form of dressing developed since then? Well, the development of clothing simply mirrored what was happening in the larger culture. As the women’s movement grew in popularity, so did the need for new clothing options. Women started to demand more creative designs that would allow them to feel beautiful and attractive. Thus, the birth of such fashion styles as the ‘Minimalist’ and ‘opian’ style resulted.
As the 1920s progressed, so too did women’s interest in clothing. They demanded for designs that were more comfortable to wear, which led to the rise of the ‘sleepy woman’ concept. As we can see from the earlier image, this was also a perfect time for the clothing industries to experiment with new materials and colors. So, as we gaze back at the 1921 fashions, we can see that they were truly groundbreaking, even though the fashion industry might not have completely gotten it.
