Review
"It is only now, with the publication, in Paris, of Dominique Veillon’s La Mode sous l’Occupation, that we learn how valiantly French women’s impulse to express themselves in the clothes they wear adapted itself to their straightened lives, and how narrowly the French fashion industry escaped extinction." --The New Yorker
"This rich work (and good read) ... dedicated to a new subject, will enrich our knowledge of the war-time economy in a significant way."' --Jean-Pierre Le Crom, H-France
