Rationing was underway and clothing was included. Most woman's fashions at the time were heavily influenced by military styles. Tailored, squared silhouettes, with masculine and utilitarian influences were styles that women had to choose from. Good bye was the natural silhouette of the 1930's. It was common that brides would wear a current dress of theirs and grooms their military regalia for the wedding ceremony. A few days planning was all that some brides had for their wedding if their finance came home for leave!
The 1940's has had an incredible influence on fashion of the 21st Century and is continually revisited down the runway, time and time again.
