The 1920s/Roaring 20s fashion style was characterized by a dramatic shift towards modernity, freedom, and rebellion against traditional norms. This era saw significant changes in clothing, hairstyles, and accessories for both men and women.
The 1920s fashion emerged in the aftermath of World War I and the Spanish Flu pandemic. It reflected a desire for freedom and rebellion against restrictive Victorian-era clothing. The rise of jazz music, speakeasies, and women's suffrage movement greatly influenced the style. Coco Chanel played a significant role in popularizing the new, more relaxed silhouettes for women.
