Patterns - 1930s

1930s fashion featured longer, calf-length skirts for daywear, often in bias-cut styles that created a slinky silhouette, and glamorous, backless gowns for eveningwear, heavily influenced by Hollywood. Key trends included exaggerated padded shoulders, especially in suits, wide-leg pants and sailor pants, berets and wide-brimmed hats, and fur stoles as accessories.
