A Serious Study of Mid-20th Century Lingerie by What Katie Did, photos by Tony Nylons. Soft cover with 100 pages and around 100 full colour photos, A4 in size. The study of women's 1940’s fashion in book form, has taken off over the last few years. With the ladies joining in with their partners at the military shows/dances around the world etc. They are always looking for information on what to wear and what is correct for the period. Well that section has now been covered. But what lies underneath, has not? Until now! The What Katie Did company, who many of you will have seen at various shows, selling 1940’s/50’s underwear etc. Have now brought out this book that covers this taboo subject! It gives a lot of history on what was worn underneath during this period, so that the lady collector can get it right! With lots of stunning photos to ad! The stunning photographs have been taken by Tony Nylons, who is regarded as one of the best in this field of photography. Using none-professional models, but models who are already interested in this subject, giving the book a more ‘real’ feel. Its not a rude ‘top shelve’ book, it’s a tasteful look at underwear of the 1940’s/50’s. Nothing explicit, but maybe ‘seductive’ would be the better word for it. Many of the vehicles in the background have been restored by Katie's husband Richard Thomas, giving this book an era of the period look! The ladies will love it, and we bet the men will too! Price £23.99 inc p&p UK.
