Dresses in the 1920s were a lot different than they are now. In the 1920s dresses were lighter due to lighter fabric and a lot shorter than women were used too. Bright, vibrant colors were introduced in this era. A huge trend were evening dresses and coats trimmed with fur. Sleeves were usually long and and close fitting. There was almost always a collar treatment that is either high or cut very close to the throat. The most common silhouette was straight and simple with plaits. Each year of the 1920s, silhouette became a little more man like each year, which exposed the feminine woman underneath. With the super short skirts, shirts were also cut shorter as well. They stopped at the top of the hips. The necklines were V, square or bateau. A huge fashion trend was a tight belt around the top of the hips for day or night attire..
