The Roaring Twenties was an astounding period with distinctive expressions in art (Art Deco), music (jazz) and fashion.  That's the decade when hemlines rose as waistlines dipped. Daring young women or "flappers" tossed out corsets, went for the boyish style and favored bobbed hairstyles and close fitting hats.

Celebrating the flapper look is Israeli artisan, Yali Paz whose Etsy shop is filled with delightful felt and fabric brooches.  These capture the style and look of flappers right down to coy glances!


The twenties was also the time when F. Scott Fitzgerald wrote his great books. So Yali has just the right Jazz age man brooch!

She explains her design process : "I love "my girls", designing their cute cloche hats, choosing the right hair color to match and looking for the most complimenting miniature embellishments to put in their hair. 

The finish stage in my work is my favorite - to put a face on every brooch giving it an individual character, putting life into matter and making the little faces come alive."


Yali also makes amazing Frida Kahlo and Marie Antoinette inspired brooches :
