While men's style changed little women's looks changed significantly over the course of the 1930s. The previous Roaring Twenties were still characterized by a new very androgynous image of women and the so-called Flapper Girl was a symbol of the independent modern woman. But in the 30s this trend changed to the complete opposite: the elegant lady was popular again. This was reflected above all in the rediscovery of the female figure. Reason for this: The woman as a caring mother and housewife was THE ideal of the time. This conservative image was also accompanied by a hyperfeminization of women. This value attitude was particularly evident in the emphasis on the high waist. unknown
