Here is a 40s inspired outfit. The dress has no label, the shoes say Personality, and the cape is Sherwood of Ohio and Kronenfeld Furs.

Miu Miu did a great job of channeling the 40s in their Fall 2011 collection. They showed interesting bird motifs, tortoise shell sunglasses, 40s hair, and sparkling contorted shoes. They chose Hailee Steinfeld to model in their campaign and she did a great job displaying the line. In the picture above they show the over sized clutch that was also very popular.
