I was trying to date a photograph with nothing to go on but the clothes in the image. Knowing very little about fashion history, and even less about Indian fashion history, I turned to that trusty source, the interwebs! I came across this blog, which has a fantastic range of images, from portraits to stills from old films and such. There are some great photographs of flapper influences on Indian women’s fashion in the 20’s towards the bottom.
Enjoy!
