A Gibson Girl was a turn-of-the-century archetype of the idealized American woman characterized by her hourglass figure, high necklines, and long hair. In contrast, a flapper was a young, liberated woman of the 1920s known for her bobbed hair, short skirts, and rebellious attitude, defying traditional gender norms.
