#flapper era

🎬 Louise Brooks was the youngest member of the Denishawn Dancers at age 15. On a dance tour of Europe in 1925 with friend and fellow actress Barbara Bennett she performed "the Charleston," making her the first woman to perform the dance move in London.

She was “discovered” by Walter Wagner of Paramount Pictures while dancing with the Ziegfeld Follies. At just 19, Brooks signed a five-year contract with the studio and began her silent film career.

The 'Bob' haircut was a 'shock' to society when it was first created by Antoinette de Paris in France in 1909.

Louise Brooks popularised the short, sleek, jet black, chin-length cut, blunt-cut bangs and shingled back 'Bob' cut with her signature 'Lulu bob.

Brooks's daring and unapologetic hairstyle symbolised the independence and carefree modernity of the flapper era which became an international fashion phenomenon in the mid-to-late 1920s.

Her image as a cinematic icon solidified her in film and fashion history.

An up close view of some of the pieces that will be in our second installation on October 4th 2025 at the 25th Sickle Cell Awareness Gala for Louisville KY - 7pm to 11pm ✨️ "we are timeless, we are universal" - sickle cell warriors, and our supporters, everywhere 🐞✨️🖤🌻

"The Bluebelle Universal pays homage to Kentucky;

the Flapper's Delight pays tribute to the 20s, an era of fashion, freedom, and making of history.

During that time, speaking up came at great cost. So, many Black + Brown women, men, nonbinaries, and femmes used art, fashion, music, or a unique combination of the 3 to bring subtle yet very stout attention / awareness to their causes at heart.

It is in this vein that Sunflowers For Sickle Cell does what we do. By raising awareness and creating safe spaces for that awareness to thrive, we accomplish the unthinkable of providing genuine change to the status quo, both cultivating + giving multi-mediums of support to those battling or mending from the vast impact that sickle cell anemia has on the entire world."
