Flapper films and headbands


I watched the adorable Gloria Swanson silent film Why Change You Wife? (1920) on NetFlix last weekend. It follows a husband and wife who learn to appreciate each other after some time apart (with other lovers), and though it came out a wee bit before the full-on flapper rage, the decadent costumes and sets foreshadow the upcoming trends. The film also shows quite the cat-fight, though I prefer its fashion. It inspired me to pick up this headband from Urban Outfitters.


I personally love how fancy this is.
