FASHION
The trends and styles were highly influenced by Surrealism and Art Deco with a new approach to color and geometric shapes. Hollywood movies portrayed a new woman. A smart woman. Androgynous features were emphasized, modern, slick and daring.

Assembly lines made the idea of conventional cars realistic. By 1927, 15 million units were sold. After Ford’s Model T boom, people opted for more stylish alternatives. Some could afford to look the way they pleased.
