Camille Clifford Was A Gibson Girl In The Flesh
Camille Clifford was deemed the real-life version of the Gibson Girl to the point that almost anyone would agree that she was a Gibson Girl in the flesh. Camille joined a contest that searched for the look-a-like of Charles Gibson’s illustration. It was not surprising that Camille won, and the judges considered her to look more like the drawings than any of the other participants.
The Flapper Of The Roaring ‘20s
The Gibson and the It Girl barely had anything in common during the ’20s. The flapper of the roaring ’20s had short hair and refused to wear a corset. Back then, the hourglass figure and dramatic hairstyle were no longer the trends. After almost a century of battle, women were allowed to vote upon the 19th Amendment’s ratification. The start of consistent fashion changes began after the political upheaval.
