The Jazz Age
Bibliography for Luncheon presentation in Philadelphia
At the
United Federation of Doll Clubs Annual Convention
July 15, 2005
The “Jazz Age” extended from 1919 to 1930. It was a time of music, dancing, fast cars and Paris frocks. It was a time for youth, exuberance, short skirts, fringe and swinging beads. The styles of the era were pictured in a program Susan Sirkis presented at the UFDC 2005 National convention. For those who wish to pursue their own study of the period, here is a bibliography for the program. An article by Susan on the period appears in the convention journal, Reflections in Fashion, available from www.ufdc.org.
