Vintage 1920

America entered a prosperous era after WWI, social customs and morals were relaxed and new music and dances came in vogue. Woman won the right to vote, started participating in all sorts of sports, liquor was prohibited, and the Charleston was the new dance craze. From 1925 the styles that are associated with the “roaring twenties” were embraced by the public, especially the youth. Young girls removed the constricting corsets and banded themselves with a bandeau, flattening the chest and emphasizing a more boyish look. Silk was still used for beaded dresses but an artificial fiber, rayon replaced silk in stockings and undergarments. Long hair was cut short and the cloche hat became very fashionable.  We have numerous “one of a kind” original pieces in various sizes and all have been attended to by relining, repaired or rebeaded.
