The 1920's was the decade in which fashion entered the mordern era. Woman began to liberate themselves and began to dress in comfortable and more fashion inspired garments.
I liked these pictures because it portrays woman in a classy but sexy way. I like to think that my gran was like one of these ladies back in her day.

The roaring 20s!







This week we are loving all things 20's.. with the arrival of Martin Scorsese's 'Boardwalk empire' on our screens, we think this will be the new 'Mad Men', and who know it could soon be influencing designers work like mad men did with its 60's inspired looks..

The 20s is a great era to draw inspiration from in fashion, with gorgeously cut, glamorous clothes and amazing details.. whats not to love??!
