"The British have always been concerned about accent, appearance and class, but at no time during the twentieth century was 'keeping up appearances' more important than during the 1920s and 1930s. Drawing on a range of original sources, Catherine Horwood records the experiences of clothes selection during the interwar years, and reveals the importance of dress codes to both men and women whether at home, at work or at leisure."--BOOK JACKET.
