The premise is silly and forced. The reason why the "tubarcular" version of beauty declined is because the rich and famous stopped dying from tuberculosis. The reason why the flappers wore far less clothing, of different material, and cut their hair short is because the rich and famous were afraid of disease carrying bacteria, not because of some proto-feminism. We saw a similar beauty movement in the 1990s with the "heroin addict" version of beauty. Whatever physical aspects distinguish the rich and famous are the things that become the next beauty and fashion standard.
