Horwood, Catherine2005

The British have always been concerned about accent, appearance and class, but the cliche 'keeping up appearances' was strongest in the 1920s and 1930s. Drawing on primary sources, this book records the experiences of dress shopping during the interwar years, and reveals the importance of the dress codes.
