The fashion of the 1910s was still very similar to the 1900s. With a puffy chest, a small waist, and long dresses/skirts. The fashion was overall still very petite and romantic, with bright and dove colors as purple, pink, and peach. A lot of lace, details, and white to capture the pure and innocent fashion.  Following the 1910 performance of “Scheherazade” by the Ballets Russes in Paris, a fashion mania for oriental styles was born. Designs became asymmetrical.'
