Margaret Gorman – A Lean Beauty
In 1921, the Ms. American pageant crowned Margaret Gorman as the epitome of beauty both inside and out. In addition to her great personality and other abilities, her fans and those who had a passion for the show loved her. They agreed her shape and figure were the highlight of the show and the decade by extension. It was the complete opposite of the Gibson girl figure that existed a few centuries back. It turned out, people were now fond of women with lean bodies.
The Soft Siren Of The’30s
Well, just as the corsets went out of fashion a little while after it came in, so did the flapper dresses that faced the harsh reality of a crashed stock market. As the ’30s approached, the previous century’s traditional flapper dresses turned to more fitted dresses that captured the essence of the curves on the female body. It gorgeously helped the female figure standout. For sure, if this fashion trend had surfaced earlier, it would definitely be a laughing stock of the time.
