Fabulous Fashions Of The 1940s (DVD)

- - Product Description: Since its earliest days, cinema has been the worlds shop window for fashion. In the darkened emporium,British Pathé Cinemagazines initially focussed on the Parisian modes, but by the 1940's the emphasis was equally on the home grown fashions.From the ground-breaking glamour now synonymous with that era to the plight of war-time women trying to make the most of their clothing coupons, Pathé Cinemagazines captured it all. This is the definitive collection of those newsreels and reports presented on DVD for the very first time. Reports are included on eccentric hat designer Lady Newborough and the legendary designer Norman Hartnell. Uber-glamorous film star Lana Turner is seen having a new hairstyle and other film stars model chinchillafur coats.
    
    For Pathé, during the 40s, the emphasis was definitely on how the ordinary woman in the street couldmake the most of her clothing coupons by making things herself, mending things she already had andbuying clothes for practical durability.
