Uniforms: The Armor of War
The uniforms of the Great War were more than just garments; they were symbols of national identity, military rank, and protection. From the iconic "Tommy Atkins" khaki of the British Army to the distinctive blue of the French "Poilus," each uniform tells a story of bravery, sacrifice, and the human toll of war.
This book delves into the meticulous design and functionality of these uniforms, exploring the materials used, the evolution of camouflage patterns, and the challenges of mass production in the face of unprecedented demand.
Civilian Fashion: A Reflection of Resilience
Despite the horrors unfolding on the battlefields, the war had a profound impact on civilian fashion as well. Women stepped into new roles in the workforce, demanding practical and comfortable clothing that allowed them to contribute to the war effort.
Skirts grew shorter, trousers became more prevalent, and the silhouette became more tailored. Fashion designers played a vital role in catering to these changing needs, creating garments that were both stylish and empowering.
