The 1920s was an era of significant changes in lifestyle and in culture. The end of WWI saw an economic boom worldwide. This time in history is often referred to as the Roaring Twenties, in North America, the Golden Age (in Europe), and Annees folles or Crazy Years (in France).
The 1920s was the era of new cars, household electricity and telephones, jazz bands, growing cities, women in the workforce, the rise of consumer culture, and unprecedented economic growth. Men and women lived a more active lifestyle after the war and needed a wardrobe to match their new way of life.
The fashion trends of the 1920s were more casual and relaxed. Women often wore knee length tubular day dresses and men often wore knickerbockers with sweater vests. The flapper style for women and the zoot suits for men were also popular in the 1920s.
