Ep 239: Julia Kelly on The Dressmakers of London

This week, Julia Kelly is back with us to discuss her new novel, The Dressmakers of London, about estranged sisters who inherit their late mother’s dress shop in World War II London. 

We discuss unearthing women's everyday experiences in history, how rationing affected women's fashion during World War II, the lasting impact on clothing design,  ties to today's slow fashion movement, and much more.
