One of the most popular vintage-inspired dress designs of the 20th century is the 1920s flapper style clothing. At the time, women wanted their bodies free from the shackles of tight corsets, long and cumbersome skirts and hats large enough to house a colony of birds. In the 1920s, the word fashionable meant women daring to raise their hemlines, short hairstyles, bejewelled headpieces, fans, feathers, and freer waistlines and with post-war spending inspiring women to shop once again, a new kind of fashion therapy evolved. So, if you are like many women that love vintage fashion, clothing styles of the 1920s are feminine, chic, and body-flattering. Wearing a flapper style outfit with the right accessories, you'll look like you sashayed out of the Great Gatsby movie.

1960s Vintage Style and Fashion

While fashion of the fifties depicted sweeping elegant gowns and couture dresses worn by mature wealthy elitist women, the sixties style was a total deviation from the past. Fashion was aimed at youthful trendy women with tastes and preferences for simple geometric shapes, shorter lengths, and looser fits, clothing typical of the British pop scene. Seamstresses and tailors were beginning to lose business to the mass production of apparel manufacturers. It was a new era of fashion-on-the-go and as style began to change, using elegance as a symbol of prestige and elitism was no longer ‘fashionable’.
