1940s Fancy Dress Costumes

The start of the 40’s decade was a dark one. World War 2 overshadowed the globe and it was a difficult time for everyone. However, the era also saw the introduction of iconic comic books from Marvel and DC; it was also when Laurel and Hardy and Tom and Jerry graced our TV screens for the first time. Represent soldiers, pilots and home forces of WW2, or become one of the original superheroes to embrace 1940’s pop culture.
