We've had a few cooler days here, and my thoughts are turning to suits.
Tailored suits of the 1930s featured the long, slim, naturally curved look, much like the dresses of the day - no extreme hourglass silhouettes. A sleeveless or short sleeve blouse can be worn underneath, and changed daily giving the suit a different look. By the end of the 1930s, skirts were slightly fuller and shorter (like the pattern I am using for my skirt), but still knee length or below, and the shoulders become slightly padded, ushering the looks of the 1940s.
