How did World War 2 affect fashion in the 1940s?
AnswerA couple of changes in fashion were:
One was the peekaboo hair style popular among women at the wars outset, due to women following the amazing Hollywood movie star styles.
Due to so many women being called to industrial occupations in war industries, it was requested that Hollywood stars change their styles and encourage American women to wear their hair shorter and up, this deemed necessary for safety sake when operating machinery. The request was successful.
Also, to save cloth for the war effort, dresses were made shorter. They never reached anywhere near the high hem levels of 'minis' found in the 1960's however. But the 2 piece bikini was established during this time.
Otherwise there was not a lot of thought given to fashion during the war. Most peoples' efforts went towards more tangible and practical goals.

In Britain of course, shortages and rationing slowed fashion development, and one effect of the War was the Austerity that followed it, not really lifting until the late 1950s. From contemporary photographs it seems that men's fashions were the more conservative, with an almost uniform appearance of rather drab clothes and hair styles (mainly "short back & sides" - nearly military standard) for most men for many years.

Many people say that it resembles a boot. To me, it looks like a high-heel, one that covers your calf, you know what I'm talking about? Now EUROPE looks like a boot to me, but no one ever says that. Same for Mississippi and Alabama, they look like a pair. Louisiana, to me, resembles a capital L more than a boot. I live in Louisiana!

How did Italy's city-states become wealthy?
Now there is a reason for this, but it will take someone more bright than me to explain it to you: for some reason Europe makes an advance in technology in the Middle Ages which was unmatched by others. What makes the European go exploring I do not know, no Japanese or Chinese or Indian vessels ever sailed up the Thames or Tagus. Far less did they come here to conquer (I'm in UK) as we did going there. And we took weapons with us, the bayonet and the musket & the lance armed cavalryman. And here comes the important bit: We exploited to the full the people and the lands we conqured. Yes, sure the British took them Chgristianity and Cricket. But we are no less guilty, more so in many instances, of exploitation. The British in particular built a massive trading fleet, and then along came the Industrial Revolution at just the right time. Bingo ! That's not only particular to Britain, it happened all over Europe. But quite why it happened when it did I do not know, I like to call it an accident of history, but I'm not sure that is quite the truth.
