Maycomb Tribune:
Fashion
The general population here in Maycomb tries to look for inexpensive but trendy clothes. The rich can afford those fancy Paris designers. I personally try to mimic Bette Davis and Greta Garbo, even with the little bit of money I have. They’re both big stars.
The styles these days don’t really change, as much as they used to, because everyone has less money due to the depression. Our clothes need to last longer, since we can’t buy them all the time. The children usually wear overalls, jeans, button downs, or church dresses. Within the women is where you’ll find the types of dresses with prints and waistlines. We usually save the long hem dresses for evening and the calf-lined dresses for daytime events. Our men around here wear those high-waist, wide pants. But if they’re respectable, they know to place a hat on top. This has been your fashion report.
