Fashion on the Ration: Style in the Second World War
Tube tops can be dressed up or dressed down for a more casual look
Athletic shorts, a tank with no bra, and flip-flops feels casual to the point of house clothes, but giving the tank a slight tuck, adding a beaded bag, silver cuff, tennis necklace, and feminine sunnies make the look feel intentional rather than lazy
Amount of fabric needed: 7/8 1 yards (0.8 0.9 metres) x 60 wide fabric (152cm)
Style the dress with strappy metallic heels that elongate the leg, a coordinating clutch, and crystal or cubic zirconia drop earrings for extra sparkle
