Pants in the 1920s? No way! Well sort of. Women wore knickers, but they were only worn when participating in a physical activity, otherwise they just weren't acceptable. It was fine for a woman to pull on checked wool knee-length knickers and pair them with a tweed shirt, knee-high socks, and lace-up shoes as long as she had a golf club in her hand. Women now days can wear any type of pant they want at any given time. You could walk around the mall in Nike athletic shorts and no one would say a word to you, or look at you funny. You could also walk around in nice dress pants and heels and no one would say anything to you either. You may be looked upon as classier in the heels and dress pants but it’s still also very acceptable to wear whatever you’d like without being questioned.
