Fall Forward: Timeless Tailoring…1940s Style

Timeless tailoring

The flavor of the 1940s is always given a warm welcome back to the fashion scene. Recognized for accenting the waist to reveal a beautiful hourglass figure, this era produced clothing that made ladies look and feel their best. Because of the natural and flattering silhouette, an actual or 40s-inspired piece draws in practically every shopper. After all, who would argue against wearing garments that beautifully draw attention to your waist, bring structure to your shoulders, and sneak in delicate Peter Pan collars? Fashion of the 1940s is code for classic and timeless. Prepare to be drawn in as you check out snippets of the era's fashion reintroduced for today!
