FEMALES DURING THE GREAT DEPRESSION

• Before the great depression females were getting tired of over powering male’s, they wanted a mind of there own.

• In the 1920’s women had long hair and skirts and then “we wanted to be free” we started first with the cutting of the hair in a bob like style.

• We then started to drink alcohol and not really care who see’s.

• Then the tight dresses and short skirts, and short tops turned them into the most memorable group of all people.
