Fashion in 1942! And I'll post chapters 9 and 10 as soon as ff.net gets its act together. I am very aggravated this morning.
Fabulous shoes and summer dresses from the
1942 Sears Catalog The shoes!
The January 1942 McCall's Susan's Little Black Dress
Evening gowns:
And... really, the British 1942 Vogue magazine. A woman wearing a rationed silk dress... with dinosaurs. It's Mary Anning Russell, except with dark hair, in a dress, and with a handbag
