    Vintage Bathing Suits

    I'm going on holiday at the end of May, so i need a swimsuit to wear. I love the 1940s ones as they are so stylish and flattering, but I was wondering would the chlorine in swimming pools disintegrate the old fabric? Has anyone ever worn a vintage swimsuit to actually swim in? Or if anyone know...

    What's in Your Handbag?

    Considering some of the 40's handbag are so tiny, most of the time i just carry around a lipstick, compact, tissues and keys! No room for modern technology like mobile phones!!:eusa_clap

    Help For My Lady Friend

    I now quite a few people who reenact, or collect 40's clothing who are about the same size as your friend and they can find clothing that fits them so you should have no problem find something, especially on ebay!! I would say though, if you are going to get shoes aswell, get the measurements...

    What's your favorite era for fashion?

    I LOVE the 40's for its utility look, especially British clothing (CC41) with the padded shoulders and nipped in waist but the excellent tailoring and attention to detail which makes the clothing look very military in style, yet very feminine! I also love how practical and comftable the clothes...

Does anyone know what...
