Young, sharp, crazy, rhythmic, jazzy. Such enthusiastic epithets are usually used to describe the twenties. This objectively beautiful time is still popular and, it seems, leaves no one indifferent. They make films about him, stage musicals, organize exhibitions and write novels. The syncopated rhythm of the twenties sounds in modern architecture, design, fine arts, photography, costume. In her new book, Olga Khoroshilova presents this beautiful and crazy era through the prism of fashion. The author writes about style icons and the main couturiers of that time, about how the First World War shaped the garçonne style, and cosmetologists - the flapper style. Sports, jazz, clubs, gangsters, Wall Street, free love, travesties, African dances, art deco, avant-garde and even archeology - all the most important cultural phenomena of those years are described in the context of their influence on fashion. Olga Khoroshilova's book is a costume book biography of the 1920s. Written in lively language and richly illustrated, it will be of interest to a wide range of readers.
