The flapper was the "modern woman" of her time, born from the social changes following World War I and the hard-won right to vote in 1920.

The flapper costume is more than a party outfit; it is a symbol of female liberation, rebellion, and a radical shift in social norms during the Roaring Twenties. Characterized by its "boyish" silhouette and scandalous (for the time) length, the look represented women who ditched corsets for freedom of movement and traditional modesty for independent self-expression.
