Shop a range of antique and vintage wall-mounted makeup mirrors on 1stDibs.
- What are 1920s dresses called?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertFebruary 13, 2023The iconic dresses from the 1920s are called flapper dresses. This name comes from the term flapper, which was used to describe young women during the period who enjoyed personal fulfillment and independence in American cities, particularly as they gained the right to vote and enjoy other freedoms previously reserved for men. Flappers danced at jazz clubs and upended most societal restrictions placed on women at the time, and fashion statements typically attributed to flappers included short “bob” haircuts, higher hemlines and other then-audacious style choices. Find a selection of flapper dresses on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertMay 5, 2023In the 1920s, brides often wore tubular-shaped slip dresses with a beaded tunic over top. Hemlines usually fell just below the knee or to the ankle, and many gowns had dropped waists. For headwear, brides often showed off veils attached to cloche or flapper-style headbands. On 1stDibs, shop a collection of wedding dresses from some of the world’s top boutiques.
- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 22, 2022In the 1920s, flappers often wore straight, fitted dresses with plunging necklines and knee-length hems. Fringe was a common embellishment used at the time. Flappers also sported pumps and opted for bras and lingerie instead of corsets for undergarments. Shop a variety of vintage clothing on 1stDibs.
- What do I wear to a 1920s party?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertMarch 3, 2023To a 1920s party, you can wear a short fringed or beaded flapper dress, layers of long beaded or pearl necklaces, elbow-length gloves and a feathered headband. Another option is to wear an off-white men's suit. Shop a selection of vintage apparel on 1stDibs.
- What era is 1920s jewelry?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertDecember 4, 2023What era 1920s jewelry is depends on its design. Most people associate this decade with the Art Deco movement, which took inspiration from eclectic sources like Cubism, ancient Egypt and Native American, African and Asian motifs. However, some pieces produced during the 1920s are more in line with the style trends of earlier periods, such as Art Nouveau, Edwardian and Victorian. Explore a diverse assortment of 1920s jewelry on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertJune 15, 2023In the 1920s, fashionable colors included jewel tones. Fashion, jewelry, furniture and decorative objects often featured jade green, deep reds, amethyst purple, dusty mustard yellow and peacock blue. Find a range of 1920s-era jewelry and fashion on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2024The clothing style in the 1920s that most people think of first is the flapper style. Women who dressed in this style sported loose-fitting, short dresses, often outfitted with drop waists and fringe. Small cloche hats and headbands were signature accessories of the flapper look. During the decade, pleated tennis skirts and cardigan sweater sets left the courts and became staples of some women's everyday styles. For men, soft collars replaced stiff, starched ones, and simple single and double-button suit jackets worn without waistcoats became trendy. Trousers also took on a new shape with wider-cut legs, and Oxford bags gained popularity. On 1stDibs, shop a variety of 1920s apparel and accessories.
- 1stDibs ExpertMay 5, 2023The type of tile that was used in the 1920s was primarily ceramic. Many shapes were available, including basketweave, penny round, pinwheel, square and subway. Hexagon tiles, however, which are still on trend, have been in use in bathrooms since at least the early 1900s. The choice of hexagonal tiles is believed to have been tied to cleanliness, as the small pieces could stand up to aggressive cleaning and could be easily replaced if needed. On 1stDibs, shop a collection of tiles from some of the world's top sellers.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Flapper dresses from the 1920s came in a range of colors, although darker hues such as black and navy were immensely popular. Flapper dresses were cut with straight and slim silhouettes, were typically knee-length and had a lower neckline. They were often made from silk chiffon and featured beaded details. You’ll find a selection of 1920s flapper dresses from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Flappers were young women known for their energy who pushed the boundaries of freedom for women of that era. The classic image of a 1920 flapper is a party girl who wore make-up, lingerie and a knee-length, straight silk dress. Flappers often had shorter hairstyles, like a bob. Find a variety of 1920s nostalgia items, including flapper dresses, on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 21, 2023In the 1920s, engagement rings still looked like rings but were representative of a diverse range of styles and influences. Art Deco diamond ring designs took inspiration from the contemporary Cubist movement as well as from ancient Egypt – a revival sparked by the opening of King Tut’s tomb in 1922. Native American, African and Asian motifs also inspired jewelry pieces. Diamonds in square and rectangular shapes incorporating angular steps – like emerald cuts, Asscher cuts and baguettes – were set against black onyx, rubies, sapphires and emeralds to create color-blocking effects. Platinum, 18-karat gold, 14-karat white gold and sterling silver were some of the favored metals of the decade. Find a wide range of Art Deco engagement rings on 1stDibs.
