With the nation's industrial output concentrated on the war effort basic clothes were in short supply & high fashion was an unknown commodity. Adults were issued as little as 36 coupons a year to spend on clothes. But a man's suit could cost 22 coupons a coat 16 & a lady's dress 11 so the need to recycle & be inventive with other materials became more & more necessary.

Produced from original material held in archives the leaflets are also a nostalgic showcase of 1940s' style which makes them the perfect gift." ...
