The delight of past eras - I

Just look how life was beautiful in the years past.

I know that problems and difficulties were present in people's lives in each decade, let's think about the two wars, the big depression and so on, but what I mean is the beauty. 

From the end of the sixties life went from ugly to uglier. I know that there was pretty thing even after that date, some quite beautiful, but life in the whole, the clothes, the habits, everything went down. The number of nice things (clothes, car and life in general) was smaller than before it.

See the 1900s - 1919







This picture reminds us so much of the time before the war of 1914-18.

The 20s.


It's so interesting how this picture, which is from January of 1920, just th eending of the previous decade and the begining of a new one, shows us exactly similar clothes to the 1900s.




Notice how here the skirt is so much shorter. For sure manyy women then used longer ones still, but we see the new trend.


Here, in 1924, longer skirts again.


The 30s

So much elegance here. Amazing!












The 40s







So inspiring !

The 50s in another post. 😊
