From the May 21, 1945 Fashion feature: “WHAT IS THE AMERICAN LOOK? The Girls of the U.S. have an air of their own.” According to LIFE, “The American Look is a mosaic of diverse features untied in coherent pattern.” This image was included under the heading SIMPLICITY. The original caption: “When she wears a hat she likes a simple felt or straw one which manages to look right no matter how she puts it on. it can be carried easily, either in the hand or in a suitcase.” (Nina Leen—The LIFE Picture Collection/Getty Images) #fashionfriday#NinaLeen #VintageFashion
