If a 1920s revival is on the way, then this is how we envisage it. Less of a costumed take and more of other 2011 and 2012 fashion trends reinterpreted with a jazz age twist.
Elle Germany’s shoot Golden Twenties pretty much nails the balance of masculine and feminine, the balance of vintage and modern. In an all white palette the flapper feel comes down largely to the accessories, while plunging necklines on draping dresses and blouses, wide legs on pants, and a luxe cream women’s tuxedo jacket that perfectly epitomises the era’s boy-meets-girl fascination are all pieces that can be styled outside of the era as well.
Styled by Kathrin Seidel and photographed by Pasquale Abbattista, this is a shoot worth keeping handy for inspiration on creating a modern 20s look, right down to the messy take on the era’s waved bob.
