Barrel Bright Good Pearls Shoulder Stole Strapless Straps Thin Waist Waisted 1919
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1919, showcases two elegant and fashionable women, affectionately referred to as 'Good Time Girls,' as they model the latest trends in women's evening wear. The first woman wears a dress featuring thin shoulder straps and a high waistline, which was still popular in the post-war era. The second model flaunts a more daring look with a strapless, low-waisted dress, which represented a departure from the traditional silhouette. The barrel-line silhouette, as it came to be known, was a significant shift in women's fashion following the end of World War I. The new style allowed for greater freedom of movement and a more modern, carefree aesthetic. The women in this photograph embody the spirit of the Roaring Twenties, with their confident and playful demeanor. Accessories play a crucial role in completing their ensembles. The first model wears a fur stole, adding a touch of luxury and glamour to her outfit. Pearls, a classic and timeless accessory, adorn her neck, adding an air of sophistication. The second model also wears pearls, but her focus is on the daringness of her dress, which she accentuates with a bold, red lip and a confident pose. This photograph is a testament to the transformative power of fashion and the way it reflects the cultural zeitgeist of a particular era. The Good Time Girls of 1919 embody the spirit of the Roaring Twenties, a time of liberation, self-expression, and joy, as the world emerged from the shadows of war and embraced the promise of a brighter future.
