The 1920’s America in the 1920’s experienced a lot of changes! More people lived in cities than farms, and the nation’s economic wealth more than doubled.

Urban culture was growing more and more popular, and rural, conservative, culture was fading away- That is how the 1920’s got its nickname- The “roaring 20’s”.

Fashion-Women Clothing became more casual and comfortable. Flappers Dresses, hat, and short bobbed hair was popular. Closed-toe shoes called Mary Janes were worn often.

Fashion-Men -The “Jazz” age -Older men often wore 3- piece suits -hats -Younger men wore wide- legged trousers
