London Fashion Do’s & Dont’s (1946) | Vintage Fashions

All a million times more elegant than the trash people wear today

the first lady dresses better than most people nowadays lol

Blimey the critic would get a shock how some women dress or undress now ..

I wear a hat and gloves most days, actually. And let me say that buying accessories (or patterns for the same) becomes a d d i c t i v e; I travel with at least five hats and as many pairs of gloves, depending on the duration of trip, destination, etc.

This from a person who had 50+ hats in high school and DIDN'T grow up in the 30s 🤣🤣

A bit before my time. They knew how to look elegant.
Men looked like men. Very smart especially in three piece suits with brogues and a trilby hat.

Long dark gloves in spring and a flowing hat of a different colour? I don't think so. Ah but we can now look back and laugh and thank our lucky stars this man is not our husband!

These videos are so relaxing, even if it’s about a guy trashing peoples outfits lol

So Chauvinistic, the announcer, that's the guy speaking with food in his mouth? has forgotten that WW2 had only been over for months and men and women could only buy British government designed clothes because clothes just like food and most other daily items were rationed!!!

Hasta el vendedor ambulante con terno asu esos tiempos

Wow what a cute hat and shoes I loved it 🥰🥰🥰

It’s actually an interesting time for fashion. Coming right out of WW2 and rationing, people probably had no idea what they could and should do with fashion and personal expression. I don’t think Dior’s “New Look” was around at this time

Ohhhh a gay frock….l the mind boggles.

Yeah, well....I think they are all pretty young ladies. Slim and elegant.

Excellent taste, in style and dress is best determined by what remains widely visually pleasing long after the fad has passed. By that metric, this dude’s opinion is a complete fail judging by these comments.

Seriously hope these ladies were all paid, and dressed by the producers for this arbitrary BS.

I liked the first one because it seems cute, comfortable and casual and the last girl I didn't care for

Standing on the corner
Watching all the girls, watching all the girls
Go by ... 😗🎶

😂😂😂

ITS irony people....

Since when does a man get to decide what's fashionable for women and what's not 🤦

Geez, one year after the war ended. Rations still in effect. Tough society!

SAVAGE! 😂

Well-dressed or not, every girl in the video was cute.

I liked the first two outfits best.

You notice they started out with a plus-sized woman? She’s a ‘DON’T’ just by leaving the house. 😕

The hat and long gloves in the ‘do’ outfit were a lot. 🤔

I personally thought the first lady looked very nice, as a matter of fact, I liked all the clothes. I love my vintage clothes. I get compliments every time I wear them

Cudowne!
Chciałabym się przenieść do tych ulic lat 30 i 40. To są naprawdę wyjątkowe ubrania.

I thought all of the girls looked lovely. 🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️

This commentary is rude lol

Disgusting kind of fashion ahhahahah

Mansplaining 40's style ;)

Excuse me but this was after the War what the hell did they expect?

They all look a million miles better then the mess we see today

Oh god that accent!!

Men criticizing women's fashion in 1940. I'm from the future and men still haven't found anything better to do. The world evolves around what women do.

Hasn't this chappie heard about London street style ???!!! For myself ... I thought all the young ladies looked perfectly charming !!

Perhaps he should spend more time looking for a man to get rid of that PMS for him, rather than bullying the way women dress, which won’t matter to him anyway, since we all know he isn’t looking for kitty.

the first were nice but the last a mix of Turkey, gloves for something fancy and omg that fuc... dress SO HORRIBLE
fortunately was in the last with seconds while the first were longer

I think the first girl looked gorgeous.

Weir how it was ok to have a net on the head before
Fashion changes so much!

What the hell? First girl looked fantastic, last one looked like she raided a period film set for that ridiculous hat. Am I missing something?!

That last hat was horrendous.

Really, dude? The first girl was dressed more casual, because she can't afford high end clothes.
The second one is a wealthy fashionista.
Give me a break.

My grandmother grew up in the 50s and 60s. She said the outfit, in the beginning, was what most wore in the 1940s. My great grandmother had her own style, but also the fashion of the day. That was it, that first one! The last one my grandma wanted nothing to do with.

That last outfit was a hot mess...

drag the bitch

"Oh, hello, Reginald. What are you doing here?"

"Just walking around being super critical and judging women by how they look."

First girl looked the best; followed by the girl in tweed. Fashionable girl looked like a fashion victim with that ugly hat! Rest of her outfit was pretty.

the fashionable outfit...what is that THING on her head?
