No one knows how the word flapper entered American slang but its usage first appeared just following World War I.. The classic image of a flapper is that of a stylish young party girl. Flappers smoked in public drank alcohol danced at jazz clubs and practiced sexual freedom that shocked the Victorian morality of their parents.. Flappers were famous—or infamous depending on your viewpoint—for their rakish attire.. They donned fashionable flapper dresses of shorter calf-revealing lengths and lower necklines though not typically form-fitting: Straight and slim was the preferred silhouette.. Flappers wore high heel shoes and threw away their corsets in favor of bras and lingerie. They gleefully applied rouge lipstick mascara and other cosmetics and favored shorter hairstyles like the bob.. Designers like Coco Chanel Elsa Schiaparelli and Jean Patou ruled flapper fashion. Jean Patou’s invention of knit swimwear and women’s sportswear like tennis clothes inspired a freer more relaxed silhouette while the knitwear of Chanel and Schiaparelli brought no-nonsense lines to women’s clothing. Madeleine Vionnet’s bias-cut designs (made by cutting fabric against the grain) emphasized the shape of a woman’s body in a more natural way..
