Vintage Fashion in Iran: Photographs from the first half of the 20th century. Establishment of the Islamic Republic of
Iran in 1979 meant that women were forced to wear Hijab and that it is
strictly forbidden for women to be photographed without Hijab. There was a time, following the military
coup of 1920 when women were forced not to wear Hijab. Here are a few
photographs from the first half of the twentieth century, the rise of
industrial era in Iran.

The 1920s - 1940s are most interesting to me. There was the Roaring Twenties, Black Thursday, the Depression, Volstead Act, Women's History; the list goes on and on. I also find the Gregorian, Victorian, Edwardian era interesting as well. I hope you enjoy your visit!
