1940's FASHION- FASHION HISTORY SESSIONS

1940's Fashion was all about the War. Either reacting to it, or forgetting about it. In this episode we will see how utility clothing came to be, and will cover the set back that Parisian Haute Couture suffered. The War sees the growth of American Fashion with Claire McCardell leading the way. The Post War world of fashion sees the emergence of new trends. Pierre Balmain and Christian Dior create the fashion that would set the style for the following decade. #Pierrebalmain #Balmain #Dior "1940sfashion
