Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

The post-war years saw an upheaval in social, personal and professional life that resulted in a large variety of fashions in a comparatively short period. From the austerity of the utility years to the recent seventies revival, this book aims to capture the changes in mood and style of each era, with an assessment of new phenomena such as peer group pressure. The book shows a cross-section of clothing including street fashion and formal wear, underwear, sportswear and nightclothes.

Includes bibliographical references (p. 222) and index.
