    So many little details to be inspired by! These are lovely :D I never understand why, when people think of 40s fashion, they think of delicate little ditsy prints. So much was plain coloured and, when print was used, it was so modern and vibrant!

    Wow, thank you so much for posting these! I found them because they are happily making the rounds on Pinterest. :) My favorite is the blouse with the edge patterned fabric for the sleeves. What a great idea!

    Those are so beautiful, thank you for sharing! I have a picture of my great-aunt wearing a suit that is almost identical to the third picture from the top.

    Happy sewing!
