MPX5127911: Woman modelling the trends of 1926. The biggest trend of the 1920's though was in hairstyles. Women began to cut their hair shorter and shorter. Infact the trend was so great that it led to an explosion in the number of hairdressers. The style of the 1920's was young and sporty, with an almost 'boyish' look to it.
