The 1945 college girl trends favor cottons in velveteen and plush with corduroy coats and suits. Look for wide-ware cotton plush, pedal-pushers in mid-calf corduroy, boxy jackets, and coordinated skirts and dresses mixing wool and cotton. Velvet remains scarce, urging early purchases.
A Joe Copeland designed purple wool fall costume shows a deep pointed high neck bodice and side puckering for a slim silhouette. The dress features a neck and bracelet embroidery effect in East Indian pearls and gold, creating a realistic jewelry look on the cap-sleeved Solero ensemble.
Designers insist on curved contours shaping the silhouette with soft rounded shoulders curved drapes and rounded yokes. Hips curve out and waists pull in while side fastenings reflect a sweeping arc. Compare past suits and hats to see the shift to curved lines and bulky flattering brims.
Jewel studded belts and metal embroidery elevate gowns with baroque splendor this season. Designers emphasize eye catching belts paired with simple black gowns and minimal accessories, while corset like midriff treatments on formal dresses feature rich jewelry embroidery.
