My name is Amanda Mersereau and I am the newest addition to Patent, as their resident blogger! Four times a week I will take you through everything from fashion history and designer bios to "It" items and hotspots for shopping, food and nightlife in the GTA. I will cover the hottest topics and trends to keep my readers updated and on top of everything pertaining to the urban lifestyle. Enjoy!
From the fashion archives...
Once a week I will take you back in time to a decade in the 20th century. I will outline trends from that decade, and show you where these trends can be found on today's runways and clothing racks. This week I will cover the 1920's, when women started to revolt and the flappers paved the way for women everywhere to show a bit of skin!
This decade was nicknamed "The Roaring 20's" for a reason! This was the Jazz Age, when young men and women would stay out late and dance. They would attend extravagantly glamorous parties; fashionable and carefree. After the war, women's fashion began to change. Dresses and haircuts were shorter, and women often wore embellished headbands, much like they do today.
