There is something about the circa 1940's - 1950's that I love . The fashion that time , for me, is really classic. It celebrate the women's body in a good way. I've read that the fashion during 1940's was greatly influenced by the effects of ww2. It became more conservative and the silhouette is simple, crisp and just the right length of the dress/skirt. Then in 1950's Dior brought in the full skirts.and the usage of different fabrics. It's more feminine and Frivolous. I've observed in certain pictures that the girls are more conservative , primp and proper. I also love how gloves were 'in' that time. I also love how the Hollywood stars dressed-up for those time. It's really something to emulate .

I feel that these girls came from 1940's because of the hemline. As if they're talking about boys here :D
Some gowns from 1940's. I really loved the back design.:D

I love that era too... girls look like real girls, I mean they really look like ladies back then. The clothes are perfectly cut and they always have the best hairdo. I have never seen a lady in that era who is not elegant and so classy. :-)
