Chap  |  Spring 2021
Chap Spring 21 delves into the explosion of music, dance, literature, art and cinema that came just after the First World War and the Spanish Flu pandemic, including Josephine Baker, who took Paris by storm in 1925 as an exotic dancer and went on to serve the nation as a Resistance agent during WWII. The dawn of nightclub culture began in London in the Roaring Twenties and Chris Sullivan describes the arrival of flappers on the London scene, taught to dance the Charleston by a visiting Louise Brooks in clubs like Cave of The Golden Calf and the Cafe de Paris.
Sartorially, this edition provides everything one needs to know about how to achieve the Roaring Twenties look. We meet Kazuki Kodaka, whose brand Adjustable Costume is strongly influenced by the 1920s. Vintage Egyptologists John and Colleen Darnell outline the ways in which 1920s fashion, architecture and interiors were influenced by ancient Egypt, and our German correspondents report from Boheme Sauvage, a German party night devoted entirely to the Roaring Twenties.
All this plus an interview with Patricia Highsmith’s first biographer Andrew Wilson; Anna May Wong, the first Chinese actress to break into Hollywood; a search for the landscape of Eric Ravilious; how Dr. Leo Hendrik Baekeland created Bakelite, the Marx Brothers’ continuing influence on cinema, an interview with Talking Pictures TV, the best global single malt whiskies and instructions on how to make a soufflé.
