  • Dear Aaron - I'm so glad I subscribed to you recently. and especially since you include "1912' in your title, which is the year my own house was built. Please continue adding your fine contributions to YouTube. :-)

  • Aaron, I just love your videos! Keep up the good work! I found this one fascinating!

  • I do hope these precious clips will last for hundreds of years without deterioration is it possible ?? so pretty the style and grace and by the way did you all see that most hairstylists were guys "Gotta luv it :D i want to be a hair stylist myself :)

  • Wonder if the male hairstylists back then were homos too.

  • Love it! :o)

  • Some hairdo's don't pass the pass of time......but pretty faces do.

  • Nice job Aaron!!!

  • Some funky hats (especially the feathered helmets!). Still, they beat the hell out of these dreadful fascinators today, that's for sure. My favorite is the hair-do that looks like a racy bob from the front, but has a bun in the back. This was very popular with the young women who dared not cut their hair. Such a good girl look--the total reverse of a mullet, which looks conservative from the front, but shows the world what a tool the wearer is when he turns his head. lol

  • @nauort23 Today's fascinators are a combo of 1980s and 1920s styling, and our hair isn't worn the same as either of those decades, so they look doesn't always translate well. I think a lot of them look great when the whole outfit is complete and balanced.

  • Nice one, where did you get the footage?

  • From old tv documentaries and historic archives like Gaumont and Movietone. I saved it on my computer years ago and then I saw Youtube. I remember everyone thought Youtube would only last a few months. LOL. That was 6 years ago.

  • Superb ! Definately added to my list of favourites.

  • Great video, thanks for posting

  • Nice vid.

    like also the music.

    Thanks.

  • Thanks. The songs I used were: I've Got Some Lovin' To Do (1926). My Sugar (1925). Piccadilly Strut (1925). They were all played by Al Starita and the Kit-Cat Band in London.

  • Were these actually worn by people or were they just for fashion shows?

  • It was the style at the time. Everyone wanted to copy the Hollywood stars like Clara Bow and Louise Brooks. You didn't have to be rich either. Most girls would buy the latest fashion magazines and make their own dresses at home by recycling old clothes.

  • @Aaron1912 Exactly! I was actually lucky enough to pick up a 1920's suit dress that was made from cutting down a 1910 suit & putting essentially a long dickie of 20's fabric behind the opening in front (the sellers didn't know what they had - $14). It's adorable! I would love to get my hands on some 1920s green reproduction shoes from ReMix to finish the whole look off. It looked exactly like pictures of clothing my great grandmother wore when she was young. Fabric is still in awesome condition!

  • i want to do those hairdo's on myself! but i don't know how. anyway this video is amazing!

    thanks!

  • Twiggy's grandmother at 2:08! This is awesome!

  • Another great upload. Thanks!

    

  • I love seeing all these hairstyles ! Thanks for sharing !

  • THEY HAD CLASS IN THE 20'S. R.I.P ALCAPONE
