1920's Tubular
Now Paul Poiret had come into the fashion scene fashion was moving quickly ahead and the new silouhette was straight up and down (tubular). The brassiere was introduced to help flatten the chest area to achieve this look.
Flapper girls became very popular. They wore headbands around their foreheads with a powdered face. The skirts they wore were the shortest in history especially compared to the hobble skirts which were worn a few years before.
Silk stockings were in high demand and women rolled them up just above the knee.
In mens fashion the prince was the ultimate trend setter that the popularity of men wanted to follow.
The prince very oftenly wore very wide legged trousers called oxford bags.
