Dresses

World War I, and the beginning of prohibition changed the fashion for women. The 1920s was the era of the Roaring Twenties and the Jazz Age. The 1920's fashion trends were the looser, shorter and revealing styles. Dresses reached the shortest length, and women were wearing skirts. Dresses were elaborate with beads, bright colors, and fringes. The loose-fitting undergarment replaced the tight-fitting corsets. The youth did not act like the older generation anymore instead; they embraced their…

People always separate women from men in different ways and things. Things such as toys, hair, colors, sports, clothes, etc. The role conditioning starts when we are born and are wrapped up in a pink or blue blanket. Sometimes people step out of the expectations of gender roles like me. This is my personal experience with stepping out of gender expectations. When I was younger, there were a lot of things I would rather do than play with dolls all day. Sometimes they would get boring. There…

This piece connects to the skirt with lacings. These dresses also had high necks in them. But particular details in this dressed changed…

Tolerance is tricky. And so is the idea that all things should be accepted. And toleration is way different than acceptance. I’ve seen themes of tolerance and acceptance in books, TV shows, and in real life. And if I have to answer honestly, I really can’t say that I can agree with the video we watched, on certain things, for personal religious reasons. But I will show love to all people, regardless of their decisions.But I can still provide examples. In “The Mighty Miss Malone” (by Christopher…

only own two dresses in total, one for work and one for “best”, that is, for church on Sunday. Though high fashion was reserved for the upper class, working class women were resourceful in imitating these trends for special occasions. It was common for women to created a larger crinoline skirt by layering petticoats underneath or add padded pockets in dresses to hide the folds of a cheaply made dress. Working class Australian women (particularly in rural Australia) wore less ornate dresses and…

The pinched waist started the popular hourglass look. The full skirts are especially popular today on wedding dresses and red carpet looks. Another factor that helped shape fashion the way it is now was the shortage of fabrics because they needed so much to make uniform and coats for the soldiers in World War II. This shortage caused the inventions of the bikini, bras, slimmer dresses, and knee length skirts. They all are very popular designs nowadays. When we think of a skirt we usually picture…

but now I wish this part wouldn’t end. A year ago I was crowned and started this amazing adventure. It has been incredible. The first thing we had to do after we were crowned was had to go buy dresses. We found the older girls dresses and the younger girls dresses but not ours it took us two days to find dresses. Our first parade was the Foley Fun Days parade and it was pouring rain plus Hailey’s umbrella broke and none of us could fix it but it was still fun. The rest of the year was filled…

bikini? Beauty pagents are held all over the country, all the time. Some people believe that it’s ok to have little girls participate in them. Others may think different, they may think that beauty pagents are not ok. Short skirts and revealing dresses are inappropriate and not ok for kids that young to wear, and it makes the girls want to change how they look and act for narrow standards of beauty. The children are sometimes forced by their parents into wearing spray tanners, and way, way…
