This book explores women's fashion under the Occupation, from 1940 to 1945, drawn from private collections, magazines and catalogues of the period. Abundantly illustrated with more than 350 photographs, it aims to be instructive and will enable readers to gain a clear understanding of fashion during these years of restriction. The first section is devoted to the wardrobe, from dresses to coats and tailored suits, followed by a detailed look at accessories: hats, shoes, lingerie, handbags and jewellery. The final chapter addresses beauty and grooming: make-up and hairstyles. An indispensable reference for collectors — and especially female collectors — passionate about historical re-enactment. The author: A lifelong history enthusiast, Sylvie Caillard has assembled over many years an exceptional collection of civilian clothing, objects and documents dating from the Second World War. Through this work — complemented by other collections — she wished to offer readers a comprehensive reference on a subject as rich as it is moving.
