1940s Dresses

1940's women’s fashion were about creating a certain silhouette, it was all about the hourglass figure with padded shoulders, tiny waists and full hips. Nipped in high-waisted tops, and A-line skirts that came down to the knee. This was the everyday shape for clothing from suits to dresses, and even trousers.
