If there was anything that was distinctive of World War 2 clothing, it was the darkness that pervaded the world at that time, thanks to terror of the Third Reich. It was just one of those eras in fashion where a sunny disposition wasn’t practiced much, and perhaps, just as always, was a reflection of the times.
However, luckily for those who believe that what you wear is who are, the late 50s brought about a welcome change to the gloom and doom of the 40s. And with the 60s, this era of clothing that resembled that of a universal army was pretty much done and dusted with.
We are in the new millennium now, and while a new dimension has been added to our lives through power of the internet, one can still go back in time (if they wish to do so) if they want to find vintage womens clothes that were once considered the in-thing, if you will.
Of course, this will be a better option than to rummage through your grandmother’s closet to find things of value long buried away as these vintage clothing websites such as Vintage Trends that will provide you with a wide range of men and womens’ clothing from eras gone by, if only for a price.
And just for once, perhaps, we can begin to understand the value of earning the right to freedom much like our ancestors understood during the 1940s.
