Watch HISTORY OF FASHION IN FILM: THE JAZZ AGE on Vimeo!

 

Last weekend, a couple hundred fans of film and fashion came together online to celebrate the Jazz Age for the first event in my History of Fashion in Film 1920s-1980s series! We discussed the costume designers and style icons from the earliest days of Hollywood through the 1920s - focusing on Gloria Swanson, Clara Bow, Joan Crawford, Greta Garbo, and Louise Brooks.

The Style Essentials featured in this event:

Why Change Your Wife? (1920)

Her Husband's Trademark (1922)

It (1927)

Our Dancing Daughters (1928)

A Woman of Affairs (1928)

Pandora's Box (1929)

If you could not join us live, you can now watch the event on demand! You can either view the video on Vimeo or click "Watch Now" in the player below. 
The next event will be celebrating the 1930s and Art Deco Elegance on Sunday, July 17 - you can get more information and register on Zoom. Bring on the glamour!
