FLAPPER PURSE

(In spite of its results, in all artistic and literary, Cocteau insisted to be a poet and that all his works were poetic expressions.)
 A dress without poetry is a piece of cloth

THE 20's IN THE 60's

Flounces, shift shape and knee-lenght skirt, here the clothes of flappers in the 20's, which continue to inspire fashion in each decade for almost a century...even the fabulous 60's, before arriving to the geometric and futuristic shapes and optical prints, take a pass into revival of the 20's.
Balze, linea a sacchetto e gonna al ginocchio ecco gli abiti delle flappers negli anni '20, che continuano ad ispirare la moda in ogni decennio da ormai quasi un secolo..non ne sono rimasti immuni neanche i favolosi '60, che prima di arrivare alle linee geometriche e futuristiche e alle stampe optical fa un passaggio nella rivisitazione degli anni '20.
