flapper woman

a flapper woman.

The flapper style refers to the distinctive fashion and cultural attitude of young Western women in the 1920s, especially in the United States, who embraced new freedoms and rejected traditional social norms.

Flappers symbolized a break from traditional female roles and behaviors, engaging in activities such as smoking, drinking alcohol in public, driving, and openly discussing.

They represented the “modern girl” archetype of the Roaring Twenties, embodying social and political changes including women’s suffrage and increased independence.

The style was influenced by French fashion designers like Coco Chanel and Jean Patou, who helped popularize the streamlined, boyish silhouette.

The flapper look became iconic of the Jazz Age and the cultural liberation of women during that era, with many actresses and public figures embodying the style.
