THE ULTIMATE FASHION HISTORY: The 1940s

In this episode of The Ultimate Fashion History, fashion goes to war, and we look at how fashion triumphed in the age of rationing and utility wear, yet offered women a short-lived look at fashion freedom and and empowerment with clothing. (And for some wonderful inspiration for your own vintage looks, The Ultimate Fashion History highly recommends the website Flashback Summer; it is one of our favorites!
