1925 - what a year!
It’s 1925 and the Art Deco style is born, Josephine Baker performs the Danse Sauvage, wearing little more than a banana skirt, F. Scott Fitzgeralds’s ‘The Great Gatsby’ is published and the first Surrealist art exhibition opens in Paris.
At 16, gay icon Gladys Bentley moves to Harlem and answers an ad for Harry Hansberry's Clam House - one of the city's most notorious gay speakeasies – for a male pianist. She perfected her act, becomes popular and successful.
In 1925 the American silent horror film The Phantom of the Opera is released, starring Lon Chaney. Rudolph Valentino forms his own production company.
Dress to impress and let’s toast the Prohibition! Glitz, glamour and wild times!
