Developments in the Fashion Industry Post-WWII

Using Gale's Telegraph Historical Archive to explore the fashion industry after World War II.

Overview

Montage of images from blog post of fashion in The TelegraphWhile going through lecture notes about writing a research proposal a couple of months ago, an article exploring the evolution of global fashion trends between 1945-1965 was discovered. This topic was very interesting, and all that was needed to dig deeper was a research database that offers accredited, valuable and interesting sources. Luckily, Gale Primary Sources provide access to digital newspaper archives that would otherwise be difficult to access. With content found in The Telegraph Historical Archive, the following blog post uses Gale Primary Sources to explore some of the fashion trends that made fashion headlines 1945-1965.
