Best Answer

Having the money to buy clothing was not the problem.

Clothing was in short supply as the cloth was under supply controls, with most cloth going to military uses. Clothing stores were unable to buy new clothing, as the manufactuers had switched over to military production, or were out of business, until the war ended. People "made do" with what they had.
