When a country is on the verge of an economic crisis, and the world has not recovered from the Great Depression, it would seem, what kind of fashion can we talk about? However, the epoch of the 30s was remembered not only by this, but also by the revival of femininity and attractiveness. Women's outfits were significantly different from luxurious and ballroom costumes. Strict silhouettes and restrained tone, combined with a touch of elegance, looked in a new light. Changed and women's ideals - seriousness, chastity and rationality ousted coquetry and naivety.

The main features of the style of the 30's
The outfits of these years have become more natural and less bizarre. Dress in the style of the 30's always emphasized the waist. At the heart of most everyday models lay square, high shoulders, like soldiers in uniforms. A similar effect was created with the help of special capes, shoulders, scarfs or butterfly sleeves. Dresses for celebrations often decorated with furs, fringe or sparkles. The back was bare, and the V-neckline emphasized the dignity of the ladies. No less popular were products with a low waist in the style of Chicago. Women, complementing the ensemble with pearls, luxurious hats, lace and gloves, attracted the eyes of the strong half of humanity.
As for the actual length, the Mafiosi companions' outfits could be "on the floor", and with the length of the midi. Colors were chosen universal, for example, black, white or beige. But young girls who danced in a cabaret wore bright dresses of various shades.
Hairstyles in the style of the 30s also underwent some changes. The fashion included elegant shells, exquisite curls and charming styling, reminiscent of the sea wave. Restraint and refinement manifested itself in everything. The ladies decorated their heads with veils, small hats or shiny ribbons, which were supplemented with feathers. Owners of long hair boldly experimented with volumes, creating splendor with the help of fleece.
As for the make-up of the 30s, Hollywood was the main influence, which demonstrated the female appeal in all its glory. Glamorous stars from the screens became the object of imitation. The main features of the make-up of the last century were bright red lips, clearly marked eyes with neat black arrows and long eyelashes. Also one of the hallmarks of this style was the thin and long eyebrows of the ladies. Pale faces with a bright blush were replaced by refined and aristocratic images.
From all this we can conclude that the fashion of the 1930s was really unique and, despite its simplicity, elegant and even luxurious. In a word, ladies loved to show themselves in all its glory. And the style of those years is a trend that is still relevant to this day.
