The 1920s

When World War One ended in 1918, people were obviously happy. So happy in fact that their collective euphoria ultimately influenced the fashion of the time. The era came to be defined by the emergence of vintage fashion, and as you can see from these pictures, it still looks awesome over 90 years later.

Character portrait inspired by 1920's aesthetic. Shot in studio, background added in Photoshop. Lit with a single Godox AD400 Pro/120cm octabox.
