English term or phrase: flapper girls
. . . The 1920s weren't called the roaring twenties for no reason! There were some crazy flapper girls back then, ones that need to be recognized in these times! Get your beads at the ready and make sure you are fully flappered up for some dancing and general 1920s shenanigans. . . .

maschiette
Explanation:
Flappers girls = giovani donne che negli anni ’20 erano contro a qualsiasi tipo di stereotipo e convenzionalismo legato alla donna. Le maschiette si ribellavano ai canoni dettati dalla società, e questa ribellione diventò un vero e proprio stile di vita, a cominciare dal modo di vestire.
