I'd Like to Swagger All My Life: A Satirical Look at Fashionable Extravagance in 1917 This charming comic postcard from 1917, titled "I'd Like to Swagger All My Life," offers a humorous take on the fashionable trend of wearing oversized hats during this era. The image features a woman in an elaborate, colourful outfit, complete with a hat so large it dwarfs her entire figure. Her confident expression and cane suggest an air of swagger, but the caption, "But I'll have to be trotting back to work next week," hints at the impracticality of such an extravagant ensemble. The large, enveloping hat was a popular fashion statement among women during the early 20th century. The trend was influenced by the elaborate headpieces worn by European royalty and the desire to make a statement in a time of social and economic change. However, this comic postcard pokes fun at the absurdity of the trend, highlighting the ridiculousness of wearing such oversized hats in everyday life. The bright colours and bold patterns of the woman's outfit add to the overall sense of fun and frivolity. The crazy, extraordinary style of the hat and the colours of her dress and hatband make for a striking and memorable image. The collar of her dress, with its high neckline and ruffles, is also a common feature of the fashion of the time. Despite the satire, there is a certain charm and appeal to the image. The woman's confident posture and the playful expression on her face suggest a sense of enjoyment and amusement, making this a fun and unusual addition to any collection of vintage fashion or humorous art. Overall, "I'd Like to Swagger All My Life" is a delightful reminder of the crazy, colourful, and sometimes ridiculous fashion trends of the past.
