@kikyotwosoul Probably. plain old Bobby Pins aka Kirby grips. The "bobby pin" came into wide use as the hairstyle known as the "bob cut" or "bobbed hair" took hold. This trend gained popularity in the 1920s, and the bobby pins kept the bobbed hair in place.
@Aaron1912 yes, this is OPSO from Czechoslovakia, founded in 1974 in Prague by bandleader Pavel Klikar. You can see and hear more from this Band here on YT,for instance-Charlie my boy atc.
@JennRighter, One last thing, but then let's face it that's not actually you is it JennRighter, you are a man trolling the boards and pushing your ridiculous political agenda and hate-speech directed at the USA. I notice that you JennRighter have an unnatural fascination with terrorism and 9/11. Rode any good camels lately?
@JennRighter Oh and before you also accuse me of stalking you, I merely clicked the facebook link you have on your youtube channel, if you didn't want people to click it and see your celibate 55 year old face then that's too bad best not to promote it on your channel.
@bubblebutization I see, Alienesque, that your stalking and obsession are deeper than I originally thought. I have reported this new channel that you have created to continue to harass me with to the Youtube administrators. Let it go. I am a complete stranger. I don't know what is so wonderful about me that you are now thinking about me everyday and wasting so much time stalking and harassing me. There are positive things in life you could be focusing on that might make you a happy person.
@JennRighter I see on facebook that your interest is Celibacy, I suspect that is fundamentally your problem you aren't getting any and like to take out your frustrations at anyone you come across. You have a weird and scary ragbag of opinions, glad you are not my neighbor. I find you creepy.
@JennRighter - "You are completely intolerant", strange then that you JennRigher apparently hate fur, hate porn, hate the US government, believe in revolution (careful for what you wish for), love Gadaffi, love Ron Paul and argue with anyone who thinks otherwise. Yet you call other people 'intolerant', simply because they find your views extreme and even frightening. Your views are so out there, that I seriously hope the FBI are aware of you. Is Timothy McVeigh your hero?
@JennRighter " you should not reply to what people write on Youtube"...
Why shouldn't she reply to people on youtube or to your mad rants? Yoy seem to be missing the point of youtube. Maybe you think others should just sit back and let you bully and harras them on here? Sure only you have the right to comment on videos. CUCKOO!
@JennRighter Again this video was about Fashion from a bygone era, what is there to debate about it? You set out to argue with people and push your extremist feminist agenda.
@TheAlienesque, yes best thing to do was just walk away. Crap how that person came on to this channel to post offtopic points and insults about fur. Jennrighter sounds like a timebomb.
@JennRighter "there multitude of Jennifer Righters in this country, I don't believein collectivism so the idea that I am an antisemite is asinine."
Strange then that all these JennRighters sound and think exactly like you. Do you hate all Americans? No one cares what you believe in. This was a video about fashion in the 1920's.
@TheAlienesque Don't let JennRighter get to you Alien. I did as you said and googled the creep. It's all true what you said. Funny that he, yep definitely a guy denies its him yet it's the same political garbage about Ron Paul and Gadaffi. What an angry and scary person.
@TheAlienesque They seem to more or less attract the other, don't they?
Funny how being a 'slutty' or 'loose' like some of these flappers or women of today can either mean being sexually liberated and intensely powerful or a doormat for bad men.
@TheAlienesque I think it goes both ways. It seems sexist to me to say definitively 'It's always men manipulating women', not only is that unfair to the character of men but implies women aren't smart enough to outsmart a man. It's like plastic surgery. Changing your body in (like a sex change) in of itself is not bad. But it's the crazy "I must be like the TV girl" that distorts it. There's nothing wrong with the sex trade in of itself, but there are some crazy factors.
@TheAlienesque The thing is, there is nothing wrong with being a 'slut'. There is something wrong with being a whore when it means manipulating a man (or woman???). But then again, there is nothing wrong with being a whore is the meaning is someone who gets paid for a sexual service and both parties are aware.
a lot of the ladies weren't classy though cos they got drunk and slept around a lot, some even took drugs. no difference from today really, then they got STDs and some died because of it. the fashion is neat though, very unique. the music was great too. i wouldn't want live in that era though cos i'm a girl and then you'd have watch your world crash around you after the stock market crash of 1929 and the great depression settle in.
I really love vintage. But I hate how people on these comments can just go on about how all women today are whores and all the men today are bad and the culture sucks and people sucks and everything sucks.
What made this generation great was that they were proud of themselves. By their parents standards they were 'trash'. I don't understand why people can't love this era's culture without belittling our own.
This is a beautiful era, but I'm happy to be alive now, too.
A few years ago I was at an antiques and old stuff fair, and I found some perfect mail order catalogues from 29,30,31, 32 from a big warehouse/mail order company. They had all sorts of things, but very much was clothing. I just had to buy them, they're awesome. No photos in the catalogues, only drawings, but many of them look almost like photos. And some of the drawings are exaggerated with extremely thin wastelines or wide shoulders, depending on whether they're mens'- or ladies' clothes. Cute.
THAT WAS BEAUTIFULL!!! But I have to say that I don't think that EVERY style today is "Trashy" everything in life change, music and dance, clothes, even as we speak..!!
It just depends on how woman exploits her beauty. So.. from 20's to 2011 It would be boring if we still use the same..
So elegant! The fashions of the '20s through the '40s made almost any woman look attractive. Unlike today's trashy look that only a supermodel can look good in.
@The391956 Really? And that's why a majority of the big screen names at the time DIED of cancer. Ever consider that maybe people just didn't talk about these things? People didn't find out smoking caused cancer until much later, so how could they report it?
@The391956 Are you actually serious? All those things occured then. AIDS was treated as a self-inflicted illness as a result of sexual promiscuity, children and adults with autism were sent away to camps to hide them from the people of society, and cancer was considered untreatable, moreover they knew little of the cause. So just a few good things about today for you to dwell on there.
Everybody comin on these 1920s,30s,40,50s etc clips hatin and what not should just get the fuck off. We know those times were not that great, but just because you hate those times does not mean that you have to take your fuckin anger out on everyone else for simply enjoying the music, dancing and such. Just shut the fuck up and leave..oh and quit reminding us that they're dead. WE KNOW THAT ALL READY
true, it would be a boring world to those of us who don't suffer ENOUGH to hear of suffering. the history of the world is about synthesis, about the conflict between different modes of being, of power being horded, relinquished, stolen and taken by force. all of this opulence reminds us of how much abundance is still really around us, and of the pride before the fall... incidentally, the 20s look was very inspired by many things that had come before (ie egypt, art deco), then streamlined.
Have we exhausted all the fashion in the world? I don't see anything original. It's always "was inspired" by this decade or that era. Even the "Futuristic look" look like crap.
Also, after the "flapper"/pretty unique hairstyles of the 20s, notice that hairstyles of the 1930s, 40s, 50s, etc. up to the present, while obviously showing variations thru the decades, haven't really changed that much from the "revolutionary" 20s hair. If you look at a picture of Gene Tierney of the 40s or Elizabeth Taylor of the 50s you'll see a hairstyle that would be very much the same as the present (well except hats were worn).
The form-fitting clothing "revolution" of the 1920s has, for all intents, remained the style of western females ever since. There have obviously been variations thru the 1930s, 40s, 50s, etc. but for all intents contemporary western female dresses/clothes are derived from the "cultural revolution" of the 1920s. Looking at the pre-20s loose "baggy" clothing of women and the post-20s "figure fitting" clothing of women makes abundantly clear the "cultural revolution" of the 1920s.
Literally suddenly, around the mid-1920s the big flowing hats and very long hair tied up in the "gibson girl" hairstyle is gone replaced with the short "Louise Brooks", "Clara Bow" and "Colleen Moore" hairstyles. More importantly was the women's clothing: women's clothing became very "figure form" fitting; accentuating ALL the female form not just the waste. Women's clothes - as shown in the movies in the 1920s - had changed dramatically from that of "Victorian" "Gibson Girl".
Stumbled on this video. Commenting cause I'm a filmmaker/film historian and most persons don't realize that the 1920s represent a "cultural revolution" in women's style. I couldn't but notice in watching films from the 1905s onward to right around the early 1920s where women's clothing were much one saw in the pictures of the "Victorian Age" of long loosefitting dresses with the exception of the pronounced (usually) belted waste to emphasize the "hourglass" of the waist.
If anyone has any question about the earlier years, come visit my page. My parents are from the mid/late 10's to the very early 20's. Both of them are still alive.
Uh, Damaris1034, we KNOW some people were unhappy then -- there is such a thing as Original Sin, after all -- but oh, to be surrounded by that music and those fashions!
LOVE LOVE the music and LOVE LOVE the clothes and the hair!!! 1920's and '30s are my favorite era for fashion. Thanks for this--very cool. I miss the 20th century.
@Eveningking i like the style too, but it's likely the case that only the classy women were filmed back in the day. i dont think they filmed the poorer ones, who were wearing the same ol' dress every day and didnt lead the fancy life we see here. so we dont get the full picture of that period by watching such vids, do we?
@Eveningking Actually, women in that era would get drunk, do cocaine, go to bars and 'heavy pet' different men and drive around too fast. Their dresses were considered immodest and they had sex often.
Women weren't classier back then, and it's pretty hateful to say that today's women lack class. 1920s or now, we're exactly the same.
Why does theese clips seem to make everyone upset? Ofcourse the twenties wasn't a dance on roses for most people and I think everyone knows that. But does that mean it's forbidden to admire the style, music and culture? Jeez.
Jesus, are you people really arguing under the influence of a 1920's fashion video? Throwing the word cunt around willy nilly! Ditch the obscenities and check out those stockings!
I agree with all of you, the men are definately FINNNER back in the 20's 30's 40's and 50's....Sexier style....eg. Alexander Gray from the movie "Sally" in 1929.
By far the sexiest most talented guy i've ever seen.
it's sad that society accepted women smoking in the 1920's...more people dying from cancer...but people would do anything to be in fashion..cut off all of their hair,wear short dresses,start smoking.
do you think at 1.29 on your vid the head gear would suit lady gaga love the fashion then perhaps thats where victtoria beckham is pinching her ideas from
everyoe back then had class! and were nice! and beautiful and men were handsom too!! lolz!! wish i could hav lived back then!! i would have gotten to wea all those cool dresses and corsets!!
Yes, the styles and the damsels were more classier. But no, the quality of life was not as idyllic as some believe nowadays. After all, racial segregation and lynchings were a fact of life. And lifespans were considerably shorter. It would be nice if we adopted some of those fashions today as it would make women look more beautiful. But society back then would have been much better if they adopted our more tolerant outlook.
Aaron1912 Can you recommend some good music either from the 1920 or modern music in the 1920s style? I have always loved this music, but I have no idea what to look for! Thanks!
@Damaris1034 Very true. If you were a poor boy, you couldn't marry a rich girl. People don't think about how different we are from those times. Wishing the 90's, 80's, 70's, 50's, 30's, etc. etc. would come back. People were extremely ignorant in some of those decades and some had very little understandings.
@Damaris1034 My grandmother grew up during that era and she was black. I am honoring her for Halloween by going really old school. 21st century flapper coming through. <3 (Boodoop be doop!) ;)
@Damaris1034 I agree, i really love all about the twenties! I have diabetic, and if i was living at this era i have not the chance to survive. Sorry for my bad english.
@Damaris1034 I never really knew, but what kind of white people were the rich ones? I know the Irish weren't, I should know! XD Could've been the Dutch. :/
@Damaris1034 Excuse some people while they enjoy their lives. The history of the world does not exclusively involve the depiction of the poor or downtrodden. It also includes the history of those lucky enough to become successful.
What a boring world it would be if all we ever heard about was suffering.
@gajcatsb -to be sure, also fashion , is marked by designs of the times, rags are not designs, the films here were recorded to display "Fashion" , news reels like this were a source of visual entertainment , a poor hobo sitting in the Bijou did not have to find out what the poor guy neext to him was wearing - only in a socialist state & communist regime do you find Mao hats and olive drab union suits ,
@gajcatsb but sometimes we have to know about suffering in order to remedy it and not make the same mistakes or mistaking one era being better than any other. that's what history is for. to find out the truth, see how it really was and not repeat it but of course no one does.
Excuse some people while they enjoy their lives. The history of the world does not exclusively involve the depiction of the poor or downtrodden. It also includes the history of those lucky enough to become successful.
What a boring world it would be if all we ever heard about was suffering.
@gajcatsb Except that we mostly see and hear history depicting "the lucky" with the reality for most people either mentioned briefly or as a footnote. It's only recently that the history of the everyman found a niche. The 1920s is now codified as a time of glamour and spreading well-being, when for the majority it was a time of poverty and misery.
It may be less pretty, but it's the truth. Doesn't stop me enjoying the images and music.
@Damaris1034: While I agree that the class and race distinctions during the 1920's were very evident the ability to transcend those distinctions was also evident. The Irish had shed their second class statis from the two decades before and while there still was segregation most blacks in the Northern part of America were rather at liberty to pursue their own lives. Men and Women still dressed, i.e. put on a Tuxedo or good clothing, to go out for the evening.
Amazing! But it's funny because my teacher has her grandmothers yearbook from when she was in high school in the 20s and every single girl had her hair cut into a bob shape. Haha.
I agree. this was a very fashionable age and people (especially women) knew how to have fun. They didn't really lable themselves back then and since everyone didn't have different styles people were less likely to judge others based on looks.
Plus... i gotta say... the charleston looks like alot of fun ;D
Hey! Dat's a tenor banjo playing! Why, I'd know that sound anywhere, shee? And what a swell show of life back when you could get a shoe shine for a nickle.
i LOVE how a lot of the 1920 accessories are coming back on fashion. lots of jewelery inspired from those days and the hats and feathers. even shoes are looking 1920 inspired and the flapper style dresses you can still buy today. i wish i lived in those days, and made movies with Charlie Chaplin. obviously. :)
Making me watch these videos makes me wish to live in the past for one reason. EVERYBODY KNEW HOW TO DRESS IN STYLE. I mean today our clothes don't compare to the perfection displayed in this video.
Wonderful decade! I adore the clothes, gawd! How beautiful! I love the 20's 30's and 40's. Not so much the 50's. The 60's were good and the 70's ok, fashion wise.
I'm the world's oldest 48 year old. I would estimate that I am about 110 years old based on taste. Let's face it, the 1920s were *better.* Just listen to that music. Just look at the clothes. Just look at those hairdoos. Just look at how satisfied everyone looks.
Women were hotter back then...they had class. Things were made to last. My entire place is furnished with things from the 20's and 30's. Heck I don't even have modern phones. All of them are from the 20's and 30's. My radios are all from the 30's. I'm 36 years old too.
@FireAndIce0o0 We just moved into a 1937 building in Hollywood. It looks like a castle! Original everything! All the way down to the wood flooring ...It's amazing!
@skot66 I am 15 and have a lot of these old 20's,30's stuff,I refuse to conform to the monstrosity of a culture we have now in the days,and as an honest opinion from a female,I believe women now in the days are just plastic,silicon,and vinyl they are not natural like women back then,women were highly respected back then that was until the 90's when everything started getting corrupted,and the culture was getting repulsive.
@ScandalB52 What are you talking about? You weren't even alive back then. No offense but I disagree with you. Women back then had to fight for their rights for example they weren't allowed to vote till the 1920s. And how are women all plastic, silicon, and vinyl now and days???
The shoes are still popular today and the dresses and suits van also be worn today!@

Have we exhausted all the fashion in the world? I don't see anything original. It's always "was inspired" by this decade or that era. Even the "Futuristic look" look like crap.

Women back in the 1920s were so classy and beautiful, i DO WISH SO MUCH THAT THE LOOKS WOULD COME BACK AND THE CLOTHES AS WELL..

Also, after the "flapper"/pretty unique hairstyles of the 20s, notice that hairstyles of the 1930s, 40s, 50s, etc. up to the present, while obviously showing variations thru the decades, haven't really changed that much from the "revolutionary" 20s hair. If you look at a picture of Gene Tierney of the 40s or Elizabeth Taylor of the 50s you'll see a hairstyle that would be very much the same as the present (well except hats were worn).
Tthe 20s were revolutionary time for women.

The form-fitting clothing "revolution" of the 1920s has, for all intents, remained the style of western females ever since. There have obviously been variations thru the 1930s, 40s, 50s, etc. but for all intents contemporary western female dresses/clothes are derived from the "cultural revolution" of the 1920s. Looking at the pre-20s loose "baggy" clothing of women and the post-20s "figure fitting" clothing of women makes abundantly clear the "cultural revolution" of the 1920s.
lukebccb 1 year ago
Literally suddenly, around the mid-1920s the big flowing hats and very long hair tied up in the "gibson girl" hairstyle is gone replaced with the short "Louise Brooks", "Clara Bow" and "Colleen Moore" hairstyles. More importantly was the women's clothing: women's clothing became very "figure form" fitting; accentuating ALL the female form not just the waste. Women's clothes - as shown in the movies in the 1920s - had changed dramatically from that of "Victorian" "Gibson Girl".

Stumbled on this video. Commenting cause I'm a filmmaker/film historian and most persons don't realize that the 1920s represent a "cultural revolution" in women's style. I couldn't but notice in watching films from the 1905s onward to right around the early 1920s where women's clothing were much one saw in the pictures of the "Victorian Age" of long loosefitting dresses with the exception of the pronounced (usually) belted waste to emphasize the "hourglass" of the waist.

@Eveningking i like the style too, but it's likely the case that only the classy women were filmed back in the day. i dont think they filmed the poorer ones, who were wearing the same ol' dress every day and didnt lead the fancy life we see here. so we dont get the full picture of that period by watching such vids, do we?

@Eveningking Actually, women in that era would get drunk, do cocaine, go to bars and 'heavy pet' different men and drive around too fast. Their dresses were considered immodest and they had sex often.
Women weren't classier back then, and it's pretty hateful to say that today's women lack class. 1920s or now, we're exactly the same.

Yes, the styles and the damsels were more classier. But no, the quality of life was not as idyllic as some believe nowadays. After all, racial segregation and lynchings were a fact of life. And lifespans were considerably shorter. It would be nice if we adopted some of those fashions today as it would make women look more beautiful. But society back then would have been much better if they adopted our more tolerant outlook.

@gajcatsb Except that we mostly see and hear history depicting "the lucky" with the reality for most people either mentioned briefly or as a footnote. It's only recently that the history of the everyman found a niche. The 1920s is now codified as a time of glamour and spreading well-being, when for the majority it was a time of poverty and misery.
It may be less pretty, but it's the truth. Doesn't stop me enjoying the images and music.

@Damaris1034: While I agree that the class and race distinctions during the 1920's were very evident the ability to transcend those distinctions was also evident. The Irish had shed their second class statis from the two decades before and while there still was segregation most blacks in the Northern part of America were rather at liberty to pursue their own lives. Men and Women still dressed, i.e. put on a Tuxedo or good clothing, to go out for the evening.
