1920s: Feathers, Pearls & Fingerwaves

Rosy cheeked flappers, ivory skin barely less pale than the strings of pearls around their necks. The opulence! Love the headdress on the girl in the background, and oh the pink ostrich feathers – I’m dying to buy a set of pink ostrich feather fans, so that I can perform a feather fan dance to La Vie En Rose, sung live by my friends (and fellow Killer Dillers) Nathan Bugh and Evita Arce. Their harmonies are beautiful, and I’d love to dance en pointe with their voices and a set of rose-coloured feather fans. But I guess the rose colour is just for the wordplay, and I could just as well do it with my white fans… so it’s hard to justify right now! *sigh*
