Sweet, loveable Clara Bow - one of the most well known silent film stars of her time.
Amazing resource for the aesthetic we're looking to build off of. Keep in mind as you browse these photos, how we can adopt and modify these looks for our purposes.
Something that comes to mind for me - is that the Roaring 20s was a period where the female figure was downplayed quite a bit. Though skirts and dresses were the norm, they were often at calf length or longer - kind of a bummer if you're a dancer trying to showcase your lines and legs.
Not entirely impossible to work through technical hybrid choreography whilst covered up in this manner...Isadora Duncan is a pioneer in modern and improvisational dance technique who very often was donned in similar designs.
