The hairstyles are gorgeous too. The ladies in Downton Abbey always look so glamorous. I’m so glad this style is back in fashion now with all the Gatsby inspired fashions on the catwalks!

Unfortunately, I don’t have the body shape for much of this, it’s not just being too busty it’s the lack of height. I really think you need it to carry this off otherwise you just end up looking terribly dumpy. Especially the very obvious dropped waist and those long jumpers down over the skirts. As can be seen from some photos of the era when you see a woman who is not looking her best due to the current style! Sort of squat and wide. Also, not many women can carry off hair that short, it takes a very particular face to do it justice, but those shoes are quite delicious.
There is mention in The Diary Of A Provincial Lady about, “the new waists” and “what we think of them”, not great seemed to be her opinion!
