Men also began to wear less formal daily attire and athletic clothing or '<a href="/wiki/Sportswear_(fashion)" title="Sportswear (fashion)">Sportswear</a>' became a part of mainstream fashion for the first time. </p><p>Fashion in the 1920s was largely impacted by women. They challenged the standard of femininity through clothing, as many of their typical dress items were impractical to move around in. For many, fashion had become a symbol of women's social liberation or the modernization of womanhood. However, it had also become a place where slim body structures and restraints of gender roles were implied.<sup id="cite_ref-jstor_23611770_1-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-jstor_23611770-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The 1920s are characterized by two distinct periods of fashion: in the early part of the decade, change was slower, and there was more reluctance to wear the new, revealing popular styles.

Social customs and morals were relaxed in the optimism brought on by the end of the war and the booming of the stock market. Women were entering the workforce in record numbers. In the United States in 1920, there was the enactment of the 18th Amendment, or as many know it, Prohibition. Prohibition stated that it would be illegal to sell and consume alcohol. This lasted until 1933, so it was a constant for the whole 1920s era. This "noble experiment"<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> was intended to reduce crime and corruption, solve social problems, reduce the tax burden created by prisons and poorhouses, and improve health and hygiene.

Another important amendment in the United States was the 19th Amendment, which gave women the right to vote. There was a revolution in almost every sphere of human activity. Fashion was no exception; women entered the workforce and earned the right to vote, and they felt liberated. Fashion trends became more accessible, masculine, and practical, creating the emergence of "The New Woman". Flappers was a popular name given to women of this time because of what they wore. The constrictive corset, an essential undergarment to make the waist thinner, became a thing of the past.<sup id="cite_ref-West_3-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-West-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The development of new fabrics and new means of fastening clothing affected fashions of the 1920s. Natural fabrics such as <a href="/wiki/Cotton" title="Cotton">cotton</a> and <a href="/wiki/Wool" title="Wool">wool</a> were the abundant fabrics of the decade. Silk was highly desired for its luxurious qualities, but the limited supply made it expensive.

After being patented in the United States, the first American plant began production of this new fabric, in 1910. This fiber became known as <a href="/wiki/Rayon" title="Rayon">rayon</a>. Rayon stockings became popular in the decade as a substitute for silk stockings. Rayon was also used in some undergarments. Many garments before the 1920s were fastened with buttons and lacing. However, during this decade, the development of metal <a href="/wiki/Hooks_and_eyes" class="mw-redirect" title="Hooks and eyes">hooks and eyes</a> meant that there were easier means of fastening clothing. Hooks and eyes, buttons, <a href="/wiki/Zippers" class="mw-redirect" title="Zippers">zippers</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Snap_fastener" title="Snap fastener">snaps</a> were all used to fasten clothing. </p><p>Vastly improved production methods enabled manufacturers to easily produce clothing affordable by working families. The average person's fashion sense became more sophisticated. Meanwhile, working-class women looked for modern forms of dress as they transitioned from rural to urban careers. Taking their cue from wealthier women, working women began wearing less expensive variations on the day suit, adopting a more modern look that seemed to suit their new, technologically focused careers as typists and telephone operators.<sup id="cite_ref-PCU_4-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-PCU-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Although simple lines and minimal adornment reigned on the runways, the 1920s were not free of luxury.

The use of mannequins became widespread during the 1920s and served as a way to show shoppers how to combine and accessorize the new fashions. The modern fashion cycle, established in the 1920s, still dominates the industry today.

For evening wear the term "cocktail dress" was invented in France for American clientele. With the "New Woman" also came the "Drinking Woman". The cocktail dress was styled with a matching hat, gloves, and shoes. What was so unique about the cocktail dress was that it could be worn not just at cocktail hours (6 and 8pm), but by manipulating and styling the accessories correctly could be worn appropriately for any event from 3 pm to the late evening.

The music itself had quite an alluring effect on the new youthful society and was considered to be the pulse of the 1920s due to its spontaneity. With new music emerged new dancing. Jazz dances, such as the <a href="/wiki/Charleston_(dance)" title="Charleston (dance)">Charleston</a>, replaced the slow waltz. <a href="/wiki/Paul_Whiteman" title="Paul Whiteman">Paul Whitman</a> popularized jazz dance. In fact, jazz music and dance are responsible for the origin of the iconic term "<a href="/wiki/Flapper" title="Flapper">flapper</a>", a group of new socially unconventional ladies. When dancers did the <a href="/wiki/Charleston_(dance)" title="Charleston (dance)">Charleston</a>, the fast movement of the feet and swaying of the arms resembled the flapping movements of a bird.<sup id="cite_ref-:1_18-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:1-18"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>18<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Jazz music sparked the need to dance, and dance sparked the need for new clothing, especially for women to easily dance without being constricted. </p><p>Dances such as the Charleston and the <a href="/wiki/Black_Bottom_(dance)" title="Black Bottom (dance)">Black Bottom</a> in particular created a need for a revival in women's evening wear due to the dynamic and lively manner of these jazz dances. Dress and skirt hems became shorter in order to allow the body to move more easily. In addition, decorative embellishments on dresses such as fringe threads swung and jingled in sync with the movement of the body. Lastly, the use of glossy and ornate textiles mirrored light to the tempo of jazz music and dance.<sup id="cite_ref-19" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-19"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>19<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Jazz music and its perceived exotic nature had both a flamboyant influence on fashion while keeping both form and function in mind. </p><p>Jazz and its influence on fashion reached even further, with both jazz and dance motifs making their way onto <a href="/wiki/Textile" title="Textile">textiles</a>.

The female figure was liberated from the restrictive corset, and the newly popular boyish look was achieved through the use of bust bodices. Some of the new pieces included chemises, thin camisoles, and cami-knickers, later shortened to panties or knickers. These were primarily made from rayon and came in soft, light colors in order to be worn under semi-transparent fabrics.<sup id="cite_ref-22" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-22"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>22<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Young flappers took to these styles of underwear due to the ability to move more freely and the increased comfort when dancing to the high tempo jazz music. During the mid-1920s, all-in-one lingerie became popular. </p><p>For the first time in centuries, women's legs were seen with hemlines rising to the knee and dresses becoming more fitted. A more masculine look became popular, including flattened breasts and hips, short hairstyles such as the bob cut, <a href="/wiki/Eton_crop" title="Eton crop">Eton crop</a>, and the <a href="/wiki/Marcel_wave" class="mw-redirect" title="Marcel wave">Marcel wave</a>.

Probably the most influential woman in fashion of the 20th century, Chanel did much to further the emancipation and freedom of women's fashion. </p><p><a href="/wiki/Jean_Patou" title="Jean Patou">Jean Patou</a>, a new French designer, began making two-piece sweater and skirt outfits in luxurious wool jersey and was successful with his morning dresses and sports suits. American women thought his clothes worked for their increasingly active lifestyles. </p><p>At the end of the 1920s, <a href="/wiki/Elsa_Schiaparelli" title="Elsa Schiaparelli">Elsa Schiaparelli</a> combined the idea of classic design from the Greeks and Romans with the modern imperative for freedom of movement. Schiaparelli wrote that the ancient Greeks "gave to their goddesses... the serenity of perfection and the fabulous appearance of freedom." Her own interpretation produced evening dresses of elegant simplicity. Departing from the chemise, her clothes returned to an awareness of the body beneath the evening dress. </p> <dl><dt>Style gallery 1920–25</dt></dl> <ul class="gallery mw-gallery-traditional"> <li class="gallerybox" style="width: 225px"> <div class="thumb" style="width: 220px; height: 210px;"><span typeof="mw:File"><a href="/wiki/File:1920sportsuit.jpg" class="mw-file-description" title="Summer sport suit, 1920."><img alt="Summer sport suit, 1920." src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/44/1920sportsuit.jpg/127px-1920sportsuit.jpg" decoding="async" width="127" height="180" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/44/1920sportsuit.jpg/191px-1920sportsuit.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/44/1920sportsuit.jpg/254px-1920sportsuit.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1021" data-file-height="1445" /></a></span></div> <div class="gallerytext">Summer sport suit, 1920.</div> </li> <li class="gallerybox" style="width: 225px"> <div class="thumb" style="width: 220px; height: 210px;"><span typeof="mw:File"><a href="/wiki/File:Elainehammerstein.jpg" class="mw-file-description" title="Actress Elaine Hammerstein, 1921.

This style of jacket seems to have been greatly influenced by the uniforms worn by the military during the First World War. Trousers were relatively narrow and straight and they were worn rather short so that a man's socks often showed. Trousers also began to be worn cuffed at the bottom at this time. </p><p>By 1925, wider trousers commonly known as <a href="/wiki/Oxford_bags" title="Oxford bags">Oxford bags</a> came into fashion, while suit jackets returned to a normal waist and lapels became wider and were often worn peaked. Loose-fitting sleeves without a taper also began to be worn during this period. During the late 1920s, <a href="/wiki/Double-breasted" title="Double-breasted">double-breasted</a> vests, often worn with a <a href="/wiki/Single-breasted" title="Single-breasted">single-breasted</a> jacket, also became quite fashionable. During the 1920s, men had a variety of sport clothes available to them, including <a href="/wiki/Sweater" title="Sweater">sweaters</a> and short trousers (commonly known in American English as knickers). For formal occasions in the daytime, a morning suit was usually worn. For evening wear men preferred the short <a href="/wiki/Tuxedo" class="mw-redirect" title="Tuxedo">tuxedo</a> to the tail coat, which was now seen as rather old-fashioned and snobby. </p><p>Men's fashion also became less regimented and formal. Men favored short jackets with two or three buttons rather than jackets with long tailcoats as well as pinstriped suits. Casual-wear for men often included knickers, short pants that came to the knee.<sup id="cite_ref-West_3-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-West-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The most formal men's suit consisted of a black or midnight-blue <a href="/wiki/Worsted" title="Worsted">worsted</a> swallow-tailed coat trimmed with satin, and a pair of matching trousers, trimmed down the sides with wide braid or satin ribbon.<sup id="cite_ref-Batchelor_24-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Batchelor-24"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>24<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> A white bow tie, black silk <a href="/wiki/Top_hat" title="Top hat">top hat</a>, white gloves, patent leather <a href="/wiki/Oxford_shoe" title="Oxford shoe">Oxford shoes</a>, a white silk <a href="/wiki/Handkerchief" title="Handkerchief">handkerchief</a>, and a white flower <a href="/wiki/Boutonni%C3%A8re" title="Boutonnière">boutonnière</a> completed the outfit. The tuxedo vest could be black or white, but, unlike the obligatory full-dress white tie, tuxedos ties were always black.

Just like women, men had certain attire that was worn for certain events. Tuxedos were appropriate attire at the theater, small dinner parties, entertaining in the home, and dining in a restaurant. During the early 1920s, most men's dress shirts had, instead of a collar, a narrow neckband with a buttonhole in both the front and back. By the mid-1920s, however, many men preferred shirts with attached collars, which were softer and more comfortable than rigid, detachable collars.<sup id="cite_ref-Batchelor_24-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Batchelor-24"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>24<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <dl><dt>Men's hats</dt></dl> <p>Men's hats were usually worn depending on their class, with upper class citizens usually wearing <a href="/wiki/Top_hats" class="mw-redirect" title="Top hats">top hats</a> or a <a href="/wiki/Homburg_hat" title="Homburg hat">homburg hat</a>.

Women did not feel ashamed for caring about their appearance and it was a declaration of self-worth and vanity, hence why they no longer wanted to achieve a natural look. For evenings and events, the popular look was a smoky eye with long lashes, rosy cheeks and a bold lip. To emphasize the eyes, Kohl eyeliner became popular, and was the first time they knew anything of eyeliner (information about Egyptian fashion was not discovered until later on in the 1920s). Women also started wearing foundation and using pressed powder. Also, with the invention of the swivel lipstick, lipstick was on the rise with bright colors and they applied their lipstick to achieve a cupid's bow and "bee stung" look. </p><p>Glamour was now an important fashion trend due to the influence of the motion picture industry and the famous female movie stars.
