    The change in women's fashion from the 1910s to the 1920s is as drastic as a change can get.

      Just think about all the other changes during those years!...Automobiles took over the streets, airplanes became practical, some advances in medicine took place...Einstein and other brilliant scientists made amazing discoveries...People from the earlier generations must have been just astonished at the changes...just like I am now, with the computer revolution, cell phones, etc. Time marches on!

      What a difference a century can make. We go from the roaring 1920's a decade of peace, prosperity and good economic and living conditions for most people. Now to the 2020's, a decade so far of depression, huge economic inequality, Covid, the decay of society( teaching children
      how to be gay or perverts), religious intolerance or bigotry, threats of war, nuclear or economic annihilation, total political collapse among nations, etc

    My grandmother was 9 years old at that time, it is really interesting and a bit odd, to see the world she grew up in, it looks so far away from today and yet when I try to imagine her as a little kid running down the streets that looked like this it brings a smile to my face. What a precious time capsule these videos are and they make the past so much closer.

    • @SirBlackReeds
      @SirBlackReeds Рік тому +2

      This is only a fraction of that world. What normal people saw every day at that time was vice and sin running rampant in the streets. For example, child prostitution was left unchecked, and the pimps and johns had their own codes that were fairly easy to crack, such as "I've been sick for 12 years and require a red pill" meaning that the buyer wanted a 12-year-old redhead.

      @@StephBer1 that argument can be made in certain countries, but as an old timer now approaching 80 years old next year i grew up in 1950's American and even thought granted the medical advances were not as great and people generally died younger , it was still a much more pleasant and simpler time, and people genuinely seemed happier and just more relaxed no mass shooting or social media pressures messing with people heads, and Los Angeles looked amazing in the early 1950s so colorful with all the bright painted cars so clean and pristine....the girls were gorgeous and all those fantastic surfing beach parties. Just a wonderful period it will never be seen again......i'm sorry you all missed it...lol

    I am astounded by how well-dressed everyone is in the middle of the day. The models in the fashion show in the video were not any better dressed than the people watching. Everyone in the video looks even better than people in the 1960's and 80's when people dressed so much better than they typically do now. It's sad how people don't care about their appearance any more. This horrendous decline in fashion has been going on since the mid 1990's with no improvement in sight.

      No one is stopping you from dressing up like it's 1927. It used to be that if you didn't conform to whatever the fashion standards were then you would face social ostracization based off of purely superficial characteristics. Things are better now that people are free to choose to engage in fashion or not.
