What is a Flapper Dress?
A typical flapper chose dresses that were of a straight style, sleeveless, and often low-cut as well as short—about knee-length, which was rather scandalous at the time.
She wore stockings, often rolled to below the knee; had a bob, or chin-length, hairstyle; and used cosmetics on her face in a bold manner.
