As you see on the picture, the 1920s party at Victorian Discipline, was a little bit wilder than the most victorian formal events that are charactrized by more manners and behaviour, but how was the definiton of a flapper: "Flapper in the 1920s was a term applied to a "new breed" of young Western women who wore short skirts, bobbed their hair, listened to jazz, and flaunted their disdain for what was then considered acceptable behavior. Flappers were seen as brash for wearing excessive makeup, drinking, treating sex in a casual manner, smoking, driving automobiles and otherwise flouting social and sexual norms" - so a bit the oposite from 19th century behaviour. Even that time and dressing is not my favourite vintage one, the party was quite nice, and its always fun to look at other vintage times. I even bought me flapper dress, the last type of dressing that is missing in my collection, maybe.
