A Short History of 1920s–30s Fringe Clothing:

Fringe rose to fashion fame in the 1920s, becoming a symbol of rebellion and movement during the flapper era. Worn on straight-cut dresses, fringe accentuated dance and freedom, making it a hallmark of the Jazz Age. In the 1930s, fringe evolved into a more elegant and stylized detail, often used in rayon or silk on bias-cut gowns and evening jackets. Inspired by Hollywood glamour, it added fluidity and sophistication to eveningwear. Across both decades, fringe captured the spirit of modernity—first as bold and playful, then as refined and luxurious.
