A huge influence was the end of the rationing and restrictions required during World War II. Silks and nylon were no longer needed for parachutes. A woman's dress wasn't limited to just 2-3 yards of fabric. Rubber could be used again for girdles. As a result, fasion designers reveled in creating fashion that looked completely different from the 1940s silhouette - most famously, Christian Dior's "New Look" with narrow waists and huge skirt using as much as 30 yards of fabric for just one skirt.
Another big influence was the new atomic age with prints using space age shapes.
Hawaiiana became more mainstream in the US, probably because so many of our soldiers passed through there on their way to or from the Eastern front.
