Fashions of a Decade: The 1940s traces the mobilization of clothing
trends as they marched across the war-ravaged world. Women began
wearing outfits featuring wide, padded shoulders, a narrow
waistline, thin hips, and a skirt that fell just below the knee,
much in the image of a soldier's uniform, while men sported
clothing shaped like an inverted triangle from shoulder to waist.
Heavy shoes provided a counterbalance for both men and women, and
hats remained popular; however, scarves for women began to replace
the traditional head-covering. This revised, full-color volume
offers a detailed reflection on the role fashion has played
throughout this time period, and is a perfect reference for those
students or general readers who are interested in how history and
culture has affected fashion through the years.
