1930s

The crash of 1929 made the lavish beading, laces, and textiles of the 20s unattainable to most. Designers dropped hemlines back down to where they had been for centuries. Somber clothes for serious times. This lack of funds for ornamentation demanded that designers had to create beauty in cut alone. This was when the bias cut was born, shown first in Paris by Vionnet. It was immediately utilized by Hollywood to bring onscreen glamour and sex appeal to the silver screen. Details in fancy collars, sleeves, and cuffs gave women the desired detailing, with Victorian throwbacks seen later in the decade.
