EDITORS COMMENTS
Amidst the turbulent backdrop of the Second World War, a splash of brightness and joy emerges in this 1941 advertisement for Viyella frocks designed by Digby Morton. The ad urges women to find time to be "gay" amidst the challenges of wartime, encouraging them to don these stylish and cheerful dresses. The model, with her red hair cascading down her shoulders, exudes a sense of playfulness and charm as she poses confidently in a Viyella check dress. The plaid pattern, reminiscent of a kitten's ear, adds to the jolly and bright atmosphere of the advertisement. Viyella, a British fabric and textile company, was renowned for producing high-quality, durable textiles. The advertisement boasts that Viyella wears tirelessly and washes like a kitten's ear, making it an ideal choice for women during a time when resources were scarce and practicality was key. The Viyella frocks, with their classic 1940s style, offer a glimmer of hope and happiness during the trying times of the war. The headscarf adorned with a floral pattern adds a feminine touch to the ensemble, completing the look and adding to the overall charm of the advertisement. This advertisement is a testament to the power of fashion to uplift and inspire, even in the most challenging of times. The Viyella frocks designed by Digby Morton serve as a reminder that even in the midst of adversity, there is always room for a little joy and brightness in our lives.
