Fashion: Women in World War One by Lucy Adlington
World War One had catastrophic impact on the lives of millions, both on the battlefield and on the Home Front too. It was also a time of tremendous social upheaval, bringing new opportunities and freedoms. Whatever their wartime role - as nurses, naval officers, factory workers or footballers - women needed the right clothes for the job. From the luxurious silks of High Society, to the boots and breeches of the Women’s Land Army, Fashion: Women in World War One explores the impact of war on fashion 1914-1918 with unique images and beautiful original garments.
Lucy Adlington is a fashion historian and author of both historical young adult fiction and social history non-fiction. A keen collector of vintage and antique fashion herself, as well as costume historian with the History Wardrobe, Lucy Adlington is also author of Fashion: Women in World War One with Pitkin.
