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.
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.
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.
