I know you did this 4 years ago but I am so happy that you used images of women of color. Or at least African American women. And inclusion the impact of fashion on different communities like the LBGQT communities.

Thank you for this insightful video lecture! I absolutely love the innovations of 1930s dresses and knitwear. Knitting from vintage patterns is always a challenge, and patterns from the 30s are particularly devilish in their construction and sparse instructions.

Can you not just show us the fashions? Nobody wants to hear you speak.

I never knew those things about LGBT culture and Mae West! So interesting!

EXCELLENT.

Love old fashions and enjoy this site. One correction. The economy did not recover in the late 1930’s. Unfortunately, it took the war to bring back the economy. And hemlines went up to save on fabric as uniforms were needed. Thank you.

Very informative. Thank you so much for this!

Great information, I love this! ❤

I love the pencil line fashions of the 1930s and the slinky evening wear of the well-to-do. How exciting, if you were monied!

Awesome!!!!!!!!!

Lovely video! Thanks for sharing! :)

Your videos on menswear are great!

love the 30s 🤍💙🤍

The Great Depression ended drastically after the decades of prosperity for nearly everyone of they're own class.

Thank you. This was informative and well done.

Thank you

Thank you for all your research.

it's a very good job

Nicely presented. It's unsurprising that the 1930s continues to be the most referenced decade in fashion (or maybe the 70s?) The sudden and unambiguous drop in hemlines in 1930 is one of the only times when the "look of the decade" was firmly in place at the very beginning of the decade. Similarly, the look of the 40s was obvious by 1939. Many people assume the short hemlines were a direct result of fabric rationing, but those 1939 looks preceded the start of the war. It's well known that the look of the 50s was presented in 1947, years before the beginning of the decade.

Nice presentation of fashion and trends of the 1930's. Mae West was not channeling him, he was channeling her. She was a big vaudeville star and a huge name on Broadway a long time before she got to Hollywood, and there were tons of her imitators out there. She's the original, not the other way 'round, but I am interested in reading more about Gene/Jean Malin.
