- Deprivation Fashion is the story of civilian clothing use during World War II. Manufacturing for civilians across the globe nearly stopped when outfitting the troops took precedence and raw materials and workers were shifted to war work. Consumers, especially women, responded to the scarcity of goods by using ingenuity and creativity to "make do."
