Since its earliest days, cinema has been the world s shop window for fashion. In the darkened emporium, British Pathé Cinemagazines initially focussed on the Parisian modes, but by the 1940's the emphasis was equally on the home grown fashions.From the ground-breaking glamour now synonymous with that era to the plight of war-time women trying to make the most of their clothing coupons, Pathé Cinemagazines captured it all. This is the definitive collection of those newsreels and reports presented on DVD for the very first time.
