## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great!
*by D***N on June 14, 2025*

Love the fashions from days gone by.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Easy to Use Key Reference
*by E***5 on October 12, 2024*

This is an excellent resource for historical fiction writers. Plenty of pictures of ordinary clothes, not high-fashion, and their prices. An easy to use and convenient reference!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Resource for Designers
*by A***E on July 28, 2013*

This book is fascinating! Its pages were taken directly from the 1940s Sears catalogs, so it gives a peek at genuine fashions of the period. It shows everything from prom dresses to day dresses, shoes and accessories, etc. As I recall, there's even boy's and men's clothes, too. It's great to watch the styles evolve through the years.What I found especially interesting was the prices. Apparently, there was a jump in clothing prices following the end of WWII. Also, it's amazing to see what sorts of things our grandmothers bought. For instance, rub-on "stocking" lotion. Silk was severely rationed, so women had to darken their legs with makeup to look like they were wearing stockings. They would even draw lines down the back of their legs to simulate the seam. This lotion was advertised in the catalog, so you can see for yourself that it was not an urban legend.This book is a joy to look through. Highly recommended for anyone who's interested in fashion design (you can draw inspiration from the past), or vintage and historical costuming, or anyone who's interested in seeing the sort of clothes their grandmother wore.
