About: One of the most beloved eras in women's fashions, the 1940s signature look of soft fabrics, cinched waists and strong shoulders truly has timeless appeal and this edition explains the impact of war on fashion and how the spirit of utility and practicality unleashed a wave of creativity for women in a time of hardship, rationing of clothing materials and the absence of fashion designers from the trendsetting runways of the world.
