1920s Fashion Challenge
Draw your character dressed in 1920s fashion!
âTwenties fashion is often remembered for its glitz and glamour, though underlying this was a move toward simplicity in dress. For women, this meant shorter skirts and simple shapes, while men enjoyed casual suits.â (https://fashionhistory.fitnyc.edu/1920-1929/)
Consider your characterâs usual style, and how it intersects with the fashions of the era. Would they embrace the newfound comfort of knitted fabrics in daywear, the obsession with Egyptology, the elaborate beadwork of evening gowns?
I encourage you to read up on misconceptions about 1920s fashion, but if youâre excited to draw your character in a fringed miniskirt with a feather boa and strings of pearls, donât let me trample on that! In fact, I encourage you to check out ErtĂ©âs illustrations of fantastical costumes if youâre aiming for over-the-top glamour.
Rules:
- Draw your character wearing 1920s clothing
- Please keep entries SFW. Revealing clothing is fine but no overly sexual content
- No deadline, no prizes, itâs all just for fun and love of fashion! I will reshare all entries I can
