EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking print from 1926 titled "Planing Off a Bit More" captures the essence of women's relentless pursuit of the fashionable silhouette of no curves during that era. The image features a thin, flat-chested woman with an Eton crop hairstyle, dressed in a sailor style dress and court shoes. Her slender figure epitomizes the idealized standard of beauty at the time - one that valued slimness and lack of curves above all else.
The woman's attire reflects the costume trends of the 1920s, showcasing a style that emphasized straight lines and boyish silhouettes. Her choice of clothing further accentuates her thin frame, highlighting society's unattainable standards for female beauty.
In today's context, this image serves as a poignant commentary on the historical pressures placed on women to achieve an unrealistic and often unhealthy body shape. The emphasis on being skinny and flat-chested speaks to larger issues surrounding body image, self-worth, and societal expectations.
As we reflect on this snapshot from history, it prompts us to question our own perceptions of beauty and challenge harmful ideals that promote anorexic tendencies or extreme measures to conform to narrow standards. This photograph is not just a portrayal of fashion trends; it is a reminder of the complexities surrounding women's desires to fit into molds that may be detrimental to their well-being.
