Freedoms such as being able to vote, express them-selves, and gain a sense of respect from others. Not only was fashion a piece of material back in the 1920’s, but also a form of movement. With the turn of the decade and fashion, women were able to speak for them-selves whether their voices were seen or heard as negative or positive. The Flapper image became negative for the elders but the image allowed young women to be able to grow out of that stage into mature women. Wanting to move out due…

Known for its fast paced lifestyle, experimentation, and break in traditions, the ‘Roaring Twenties’ produced ideals and technology that changed America forever. One of the many prominent features of the early 20th century was the emergence of the “flapper,” women who deviated from the traditional Victorian female standards at the time.

Page used the factor of appearance to define the term "flapper". To her, a "flapper" is a woman who is within the age limit (not quite a woman but also not a girl)that would have bobbed hair (the 'badge' of flapper hood) and stylish clothing that no decent women of earlier generations would have even thought about wearing. There were many different explanations of the flapper phenomenon. Some say that it's due to the fact that one-quarter to one-third of urban woman workers live alone, free…

Flappers embodied the changing attitudes of women after World War I. Once men left their jobs for the war, women had to fill their empty roles. Women became workers that contributed to society rather than just mothers and wives.

Oldies may say these girls are over the top, brainless, useless, irresponsible, disrespectful, or flamboyant, but these girls believe that they are the new generation… the next big thing… the “New Woman.” We’ve noticed that Flappers are actually starting to seem threatening towards those against them. Who knows, it could just be because of the new look, flappers representing a new moral order, or even the older generation still might value their olden ways. I know that if I were one of the…

The very fiber of my being disregards feminist that have struggled for me to be heard. I choose my voice to be silenced. Unfortunately, embedded in my heart is a missed opportunity to educate an ignorant…
