1940's Fashion - Vintage Playsuits

1940's Fashion - Women's Playsuits


Stripes, Parasols,tunics and snoods were summer favourites in the late 1940's.
The playdress was just the thing for sports." Her gaudy stocking cap is a pet !". Boleros and belts were common to the beach fashion ensemble. Wedge shoes were a must for the hot days. Cool, comfortable and extremely smart.They were the most
popular sports shoe of the summer in the late 1940's
Featured here is a black and white pair.
