Retro 1930s Fashion with Modern Flair

Fashion of the 1930s was pioneered by designers like Jean Patou and Coco Chanel, then championed by famous Hollywood stars. The signature shoulder pads or butterfly sleeves in this decade gave the illusion of a smaller waist, lending an elegant and dainty appearance to 1930s fashion. Dresses from the ‘30s featured fitted silhouettes and flowing skirts that fell between mid-calf to floor length gowns, depending on the occasion.

Revival styles were common in 1930s women’s clothing, from Grecian and Edwardian gowns to medieval-inspired dresses. Whether you fancy fetching prints to turn heads or silk velvet evening gowns, this collection offers 1930s vintage clothing that you’ll just adore, darling.

Menswear with Feminine Silhouettes

One of the staples of 1940s fashion is menswear for women, which had an early introduction with women’s suspender pants in the 1930s. Clothing during this era worked to create a feminine hourglass silhouette with a masculine touch. This includes high-waisted pants with wide legs, suits and overalls, all of which you will find in our selection of vintage ‘40s clothing.

High-waisted pants and overalls cinch your waist to give you the appearance of an hourglass figure. Pair your pants or overalls with blouses featuring loose sleeves that tighten at the wrist and cute neck ties. This is a great way to incorporate the iconic Peter Pan collars of the 1940s or puffed sleeves from the 1930s. With blouses in fun prints and classic solids, you’re sure to find the right match.

Flattering ‘40s Pinup Style

Classic 1940s dresses are made to flatter your figure and give you a stunning pinup look. We have chic swing dresses with belted waists perfect for strolling through the park, figure-hugging wiggle dresses that let everyone know who’s in charge when you step into the office and gorgeous velvet gowns that will draw attention at formal events. No matter your tastes or body type, we have the right vintage 1940s dresses for you, darling.
