Really they are different because of chord patterns and harmonies (order of notes and how they're placed to complement each other).  They are just different styles of music, so the theory and analytical part of music are the same.  However, jazz music has a lot of improvisation, and classical music doesn't. Jazz is more of a go with the flow type of music, and classical is very exact.

The rise of Jazz music started in the 1920's, right after WWI. Jazz music was different than any other music, because most of it was improvised. Jazz music would have a main theme, but the harmonies and background were all improvised, so jazz music was never the same twice. With such a unique culture and sound so abundant Jazz was certain to change American culture permanently.

Flapper fashions showed the result of Jazz on the consumer market. It allowed for a more diversified market place. With this young, new culture the market and fashion with it adapted. "The Victorian clothing of pre-WWI was named “unsuitable” as jazz apparel." "The 1920's saw the emergence of major women’s fashion magazines that would push for new markets in women: Vogue, The Queen, and Harper’s Bazaar." (huntgreenough)

Example:
Droning a drowsy syncopated tune,
Rocking back and forth to a mellow croon,
I heard a Negro play.
Down on Lenox Avenue the other night
By the pale dull pallor of an old gas light
He did a lazy sway . . .
He did a lazy sway . . .
To the tune o’ those Weary Blues.

—from “The Weary Blues” by Langston Hughes (huntgreenough)
