Product Details
The Shift.
“The flapper has charm, good looks, good clothes, intellect and a healthy point of view.”
- Colleen Moore
First, designers imagined a world without corsets. Women rejoiced.
Along came Colleen Moore, the original flapper, to captivate the world and make the short bob wildly popular.
Life (and fashion) would never be the same.
A woman in a flapper dress could move freely, dance the Charleston. Breathe, for heaven’s sake.
But it was never just about the dress or the hair.
It was about freedom from restraints, fashion and otherwise.
By the ‘60s, the flapper dress evolved into the modern shift dress—a dress a woman could shift around in.
Women still love it for how it makes them look and feel.
Imagination is a glorious thing.
