Answer:

B. Women were gaining more independence.

Step-by-step explanation:

Women were given the right to vote and embraced new fashion and new freedoms. The role of women in society had changed significantly for the better in the 1920s, although the majority remained in the traditional roles, there were certainly many women embracing their new rights and doing what they wanted.
