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 Thanks for all the comments! That was very insightful and you're definitely right. In the 1920s, women were finally starting to be seen in an independent light, at least on par with men. With the right to vote coming to them in 1921, it's obvious that the 1920s were an extremely important decade for women's rights. You should check out my 1920 makeup/hairstyle, since this one is focused more on the 19teens.
@Caty135: Forgot to include that after the "flapper", pretty unique hairstyles of the 20s, you also 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. 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).
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.
This look should be really hot right now what with Downton Abbey on PBS.

@Caty135: You win major brownie points for using the 1916 version of "If You Were the Only Girl in the World" as one of your songs in the video :)

Again, the 20s were revolutionary time for women.
