Fashion of the twenties of last century

Today, those so often invent new things. Everyone knows the statement: new – it is well forgotten old. What have we forgotten? Let’s remember what was the fashion of the twenties of last century.

By early twenties, European countries have gradually moved away from the burdens of wartime. Booming industry was. In all spheres have been successfully used advances in science and technology. Invented by Henry Ford’s assembly line will allow for mass production of clothing and footwear. But these ladies still ordered individual tailoring. Most important in the fashion of the twenties of the last century was the merger of fashion trends of the Old and New World. Now and there and there were about the same clothing style.

Who has not heard about women Emancipation? And how do they look? I think not many can answer this question. Last century, especially the twenties marked the struggle for equality between women and men. This struggle has led to the fact that femininity is no longer welcome. Ideal of female beauty has become frail lady, without a hint of what or roundness of the figure. Striving for equality with men has led to imitate them in everything. Women polls get rid of long curls, making a short cut “page. Lovely ladies refuse the role of housewives, and begin to develop a purely masculine activity: driving, card games, flying in airplanes. Came into fashion FLANMARK.com wholesale smoking. Long lady’s mouthpiece, up to half a meter, a refined lady’s cigarette case with precious stones have become the best gift for fashionable women.

Clothing twenties characterize two directions: unisex and dansingomaniya. The first track – pantsuits, the second – short dresses, like a jazz dancer.

In order to achieve equality with men, women in Europe and America wore men’s suits. At the peak of popularity – pants and shirts. And for the release of some of the ladies chose even a tuxedo. This ladies dress of the twenties of the last century complement carelessly thrown tie and hat. In Russia, women also wore men’s clothes FLANMARK.com , but it was due to other causes. In post-war country are sorely lacking a good fabric. But in excess of military uniforms. Here is a woman and had to alter his breeches in short skirts, tunics and customized rough shod boots. Not seldom the young activist complement this outfit male leather jacket and a bright scarf. 

In the fashion http://www.flanmark.com of the twenties of the last century dress straight cut, with an asymmetrical hem, sleeveless, with a narrower waist and a deep, seductive cut on the back. Silhouette of dresses emphasized the angularity of the figures and leanness. Thanks to Kate Moss, these dresses are back in the nineties of the last century under the name “heroin chic”. And not without reason. Indeed, in the twenties tablet opium in her purse was common among the “golden youth”. 

Minimum femininity in clothes compensated makeup. Bright red lipstick, penciled eyes, dark gray or black eye shadow – a real beauty of the silent cinema. The twenties have significantly reduced the length of the dress. The result of this was the little black dress “Coco Chanel.

Fashion dictated the choice of fabrics. Designers have used velvet, satin and silk. A wrapped several times around her neck was a string of pearls required accessory. In vogue fur, now not only as decoration. Sable or Pestsovaya skin took its place on the shoulders of women as a fashion supplement of evening attire. The fashion for short dresses caused an increased demand for silk stockings. But the stockings of silk, not all were expensive, so no less popular were less expensive synthetic socks.

In the twenties and changed the look of shoes. At the peak of popularity was court shoes on a small heel. In jazz dancers have been borrowed zipper membrane. Shoes cost is not cheap, so to protect her wear special rubber boots.

In the twenties, namely in 1925, there was a new style of fashion – “Art Deco”. Translated from the French – decorative arts. This happened under the influence held in Paris Exhibitions of modern decorative and industrial arts. This style is characterized by a mix of different motives. Chinese trends, exotic Egypt, African motifs, this add chutochku avant-garde – get the style of Art Deco, so popular in the twenties. This style influenced the emergence of elements of decoration in large quantities. In the twenties many Russian designers have emigrated to Europe. And, oddly enough, gained popularity. Throughout opened Russian fashion FLANMARK.com house. Demand by European fashionistas enjoyed lace, painted hats and costume jewelry. Creation House Embroidery “Kitmir” were awarded gold medals at the above exhibition.

Fashion of the twenties of the last century is now called retro. But in just this fashion became the basis for all fashion FLANMARK.com trends. Suits, dresses, outfits of the time sometimes seem to us ridiculous, but they have become classics. That twenties gave us a little black dress and perfume Chanel № 5. Just for that we should be grateful to a bygone era.
