Japan: Advertising poster for Martini featuring a moga or modern girl, 1920s
Modern girls ( modan gaaru, also shortened to moga ) were Japanese women who followed Westernized fashions and lifestyles in the 1920s. These moga were Japans equivalent of Americas flappers, Indias kallege ladki, Germanys neue Frauen, Frances garconnes, or Chinas modeng xiaojie.
The period was characterized by the emergence of working class young women with access to money and consumer goods. Modern girls were depicted as living in the cities, being financially and emotionally independent and choosing their own suitors

These stylish Japanese women were trendsetters who embraced Westernized fashions and lifestyles during this era.

It portrays modern girls as urban dwellers who exude financial and emotional independence while selecting their own suitors. This image captures the essence of their empowered spirit.
