Celebrating Black History Through Fashion - Part 1 (Flapper Girls w/ Cool Guy)


In honor of Black History Month, I will be posting photos from the past that showcase Black people in great fashions. The photos will be everything from "street style" to old magazine ads.

Today's photo is a 1920s "street style" photo of two wonderfully chic flapper girls and one dapper gentlemen. They are so SHARP!

This is SO DOPE!!! Through all of the trials and tribulations that we went through during this time, our spirits nor our FASHION sense was not broken!!! I can't wait to see the other "parts" of your "Celebrating Black History Through Fashion" series!
