Synopsis
The illustrations reveal the wide range of fashions and styles from the 1940s in North America, Europe, Australasia, and Japan. The lively text by fashion specialist Jonathan Walford details how fashion was considered not a frivolity but an aesthetic expression of circumstances in the 1940s. While Fascist states tried to create "national" styles before the war began, by 1940 the pursuit of beauty was promoted on both sides of the conflict as a patriotic duty. From prewar to postwar, we see attitudes emerge from period advertisements, images of real clothes, and firsthand accounts in contemporary publications. The result is a celebration of everything from practical and smart-looking attire for air raids (hooded capes with large pockets and siren suits) to street fashion and the creation of Christian Dior's "New Look" collection in 1947., Here is a definitive look at fashion in the 1940s--from French style under the Occupation and the "make do and mend" approach to wartime clothing shortages through the development of faux fabrics, the rise of American fashion houses, and the New Look of the post- war period.

Some 250 illustrations reveal the wide range of fashions and styles that emerged throughout the Second World War, in Europe, North America, Australasia and Japan. During this period of conflict, fashion managed to express ideals of beauty, femininity and luxury even though practical considerations came first. Jonathan Walford details how fashion was considered not a frivolity but an aesthetic expression of circumstances. While Fascist states tried to create 'national' styles before the war began, by 1940 the pursuit of beauty was promoted on both sides of the conflict as a patriotic duty. From pre-war to post-war, international attitudes emerge from period advertisements, images of real clothes, and first-hand accounts from contemporary publications. The result is a glorious celebration of everything from practical attire for air raids (hooded capes with large pockets, zipper-fronted jumpsuits and turbans) to street and anti-fashion, and the creation of Christian Dior's New Look collection in 1947. Richly illustrated and stylishly designed, Forties Fashion is an essential sourcebook for fashion professionals, and a feast for fashionistas looking for new retro ideas., "A fascinating narrative... Great stories, remarkable acts of patriotism...mark the indomitable spirit of humanity."--Booklist
