40's Fashion...Now That's Glamour!

I have this great love for 40's fashion.  It was elegant, feminine, and flattering.  They didn't have to show off all their body parts to get noticed.  Now that's glamour!  Here are a few of my favorite looks from the movie, The Philadelphia Story (1940) with Katharine Hepburn, Cary Grant, and James Stewart.   

 

 

 

 

40's Fashion Inspiration

Since I have been listing vintage clothing in my etsy.com boutique for the past few weeks, I have been doing some research in order to date my items.  In the proccess, I've run across some great inspiration photos. Here are a few from the 1940's, one of my favorite clothing eras.
