The symbol of working women during the war, the Rosie look is personified first and foremost by trousers, which was something very few women wore up till that point. |
Women's fashions in the 1940s focus mostly on the dresses, but for most women, their daily wardrobe consisted of loose, comfortable trousers or overalls and sturdy boots |
Hair was carefully tied up in a colorful scarf |
A "Rosie" might still wear lipstick and keep her eyebrows well-manicured, but she was an important part of the war effort, and style was not part of the equation. |
SUPPORT WOMAN IN AMERICA and HANDMADE USA! |
