Sammy your wealth of knowledge is amazing. Great selection, the drop waist doesn’t work well for my body type. I’ve tried to wear but it just doesn’t look flattering. I too love the Egyptian style.

Oh wow, what great finds! I love all the evening dresses but I have a soft spot for the day dresses too. It is such a fascinating era. Many people say they can’t wear 20’s clothing because it doesn’t look good on anyone but skinny tall people. Not true! I put together a free booklet about finding the right 20’s clothes for your body type. http://www.vintagedancer.com/1920s-fashion-for-your-body-type/

Enjoy!

I was on vacation at the end of August and relished in the fact that I had fallen off the face of the planet–utter bliss!
The blog link is: http://www.vintag.es/2012/08/vintage-hats-headgear-fashion-from.html. You’ll definitely want to get your hands on a cloche after seeing those pictures– it would be a GREAT look for you..

Let’s meet up again sometime soon! I would say to watch the movie, but they pushed off the release day too far into the future!

In reply to Tova. hey Tova! We haven't connected in a while! Yes you are so true, especially after I watched the Great Gatsby trailer yesterday and was blown away by the clouche style hats. I don't own a clouche hat! That will be a '20s accessories focused post. Can you link me to the blog URL here? xx

Hi Sammy,

I’m surprised that you didn’t include any hat trends in this list– it doesn’t feel complete without bell cloches, helmet cloches, and juliet caps! Do I hear an idea for a follow-up post?? ps. I linked on facebook to a blog with the most amazing 1920s hats, but my heart was stolen by the makeup! (I know, sacrilege!)

I’m still figuring out what to do with my ’20s flapper dress I own. I can’t fit it, and it’s literally sitting in a bag of other collectible vintage garments right now. What to do … what to do …

In reply to natalie. hey Natalie! the history behind the Egyptian trend was so interesting. I admit I didn't know King Tut's tomb was found in the '20s. Tutmania! It's sad I couldn't find anything authentic '20s of Egyptian influence worth listing here, but the '60s did the trend SO well. xo

So many great trends – but I like the two Egyptian coats the best!
