Almost overnight the vivaciousness of the 1920s fashion flapper disappeared, with a sophisticated and more conservative style becoming de rigueur. Moving into the latter half of the decade, 1930s fashion was heavily influenced by Hollywood’s glamour while day-wear took a turn for the practical with women like Katharine Hepburn embracing sportswear looks; a trend that influenced 1940s fashion and is still loved by dozens of designers today.

1. Bette Davis



2. Marlene Dietrich



3. Wallis Simpson



4. Vivien Leigh



5. Katharine Hepburn



6. Jean Harlow



7. Ginger Rogers



8. Joan Crawford



9. Carole Lombard



10. Daisy Fellowes
