1920 fashion
Image by State Library of Queensland, Australia
Creator: Unidentified

Location: Brisbane, Queensland

Description: Models at a fashion parade at Finney Isles & Co., wearing a number of different styles of 1920s evening dresses which are loose-fitting around the bodice, and have low waist lines and uneven hemlines. The models are wearing rows of glass beads or pearls, made popular in the 1920s by French designer Gabrielle Chanel. Hairstyles include the 'bob' and 'shingled' styles which were popular in the late 1920s. The shingled hairstyle was 'cut short at the back and longer at each side, and artificially permed and set into waves' (information taken from: E. Owen, Fashion in photographs 1920-1940, 1993). The parade was held on 12 September 1929, in aid of the Creche and Kindergarten Association at Finney's.
