With Remembrance Day vast approaching, I love looking at old pictures and soaking up the Zeitgeist of that era. 1940's fashion has always inspired me as these women managed to look so glamorous when they literally had nothing. The elegance that oozes out of them almost makes you forget what horrible times they were living in. To me, it's particularly interesting that in our own (albeit extremely different) difficult times, elements of 1940's trends have appeared on the runway. Midi skirts, waist belts and mens tailoring have all been huge trends this season and certainly reflect the harsh economic times we are living in.
Here's to sticking together and pulling through it exactly like these strong women did before us.
