The First In A Series Of 1940 Lookbooks For This Generation - This One For Joan.

As I wind up the 1950s, I'll be sharing lookbooks for all the Dreyfus teenagers - starting with Desmond, the golden boy!

I imagine Desi's style being quite norm-core for his generation - just a bit more casual than previous decades fashion, still favouring a collared shirt with a bit of experimentation like chuck taylors. I also imagine he'd be a jock at school, like a baseballer.

When Isaiah wasn’t confined within the schoolhouse or the workroom at home, Elijah and Josephine were nearly always by his side, which caused mayhem when Elyse informed their youngest that she wouldn’t be joining their trips to the lake. Elyse had hoped for her daughter’s unladylike tendencies to remain in her past, but perhaps it needed more time and guidance.

After little convincing from Isaiah and incessant whining from Josephine, the woman of the house couldn’t deter the young girl’s pleadings. Her only condition was for Josephine’s clothing to remain nearly spotless - something she managed to do in hopes of returning to the lake.

Josephine had already been envious of Elijah’s immunity to their mother’s criticism, but it troubled her further when her lack of fish caught came into frame. Before scolding Elijah for laughing at his upset sister, Isaiah reminded her that neither he nor Elijah were experts when they began.

Among many recreations and activities, Isaiah’s favorite amusement will always be spending his time with his family.

I love these girls and I thought they deserved one last lookbook dedicated to their golden years over the 1910/20 period.
