The fashion of the thirties is usually overshadowed by the Great Depression, but the 1930s were full of glamor and style.
The very loose, square, drop-waist, high knee-length hem and slightly “boyish” look of 1920s fashion for women was completely gone by the 1930s. It was replaced with a much more modest and form-fitting style with an accentuated natural “high waist,” fitted hips, longer mid-calf or floor length hemline, high neckline, and wide shoulders. Trim, tailored, modest, and feminine describes women’s 1930s fashion perfectly.
Take a look at these elegant photos from Vintage Cars & People to see fashion styles of women in the 1930s.
