Everyday Fashions of the Forties As Pictured in Sears Catalogs: vi (Dover Fashion and Costumes)

a great book if you are in to the 1940s

Excellent "little" book to use as an encyclopedia/companion when purchasing vintage clothing or sewing patterns on ebay. Often the sellers are only guessing from which year their items are from so if one wants the authentic look it's best to check things out from catalogues from the time one wants clothing from. All the pictures are in black and white.Remember though that this is US fashion and that the European fashions would differ somewhat thanks to stricter rations and shortage.

Lovely book more of a catalogue but I like it as I wanted to see clothing of that era .

This is a fantastic book showing the fashions of the true forties working class people - not just the glamour of the screen that we are all used to.I couldnt be happier with the service provided either - quick and easy = excellent

a very useful book - but I wish there had been more photo's of mens wear in the 1940's

ok

Authentic fashion illustrations from vintage magazines. Covers adult men and women as well as young people.

Great, thank you
