What a fun post! Those girls – how to you suppose the one in the skirt felt when they met up? Art Deco cigarette + men’s garters. Couple in cart – speaks of race, class, and wondering what they think of flappers. Reads like a short story.
Renee I love the variety of photos you chose! While they seem to all be reflective of different things, there is so much overlap between them. Isn’t it wild how much you can learn or at least perceive about a person based on how they dress? I thought it was also interesting how some of the women in the first photo wore pants verses a skirt. I wonder if that was a choice or if there were other factors that worked into the reason for that dress as well maybe including family approval or profession? The cigarette ad was shows a common pastime of many in that time period and the family photo has clear class and race distinctions of the time as well!
