1940s Fashion – from the high street

1940s Fashion - from the high street

To celebrate the special edition DVD releases of It’s a Wonderful Life and Holiday Inn (8 and 22 November respectively), we have scoured the high street to locate 1940s fashion replica clothing. And for those wanting to support indie retro clothing stores, that’ll be a separate article 🙂

For further 1940s fashion inspiration, enter our Classic Christmas Movies competition. We have 3 sets of IT’S A WONDERFUL LIFE and HOLIDAY INN (think Bing Crosby and lovely Fred Astaire) to give away. Competition ends 9 December 2010!
