Everyday Fashions of the 30's by Stella Blum

Over 130 fully illustrated pages from Sears catalogs offer historically accurate images of what men, women, and children wore throughout 1930s. Hundreds of illustrations reflect the era's mood of economic austerity and its departure from the flamboyance of Twenties fashions in favor of lower hemlines and garments made from more traditional, affordable materials.
Stella Blum (1916-85) was Curator of Costumes at the Costume Institute of New York City's Metropolitan Museum of Art.
