1940s Fashion: The Definitive Sourcebook

Charlotte Fiell, 2021

Overview

Emerging from the Second World War, the 1940s saw a dramatic shift in fashion. The early years were marked by practicality and resourcefulness, a necessity born from wartime. However, the latter half of the decade embraced a return to traditional femininity, elegance, and luxury. This extensive survey traces the seasonal evolution of 1940s fashion, from the austerity of the war years to the introduction of Dior's groundbreaking New Look. It combines vintage photography and illustrations to offer a comprehensive look at this era of contrasts.
