Amelia Earhart is well known for her aviation legacy. What may be less well known is that in 1934 she launched a clothing line, Amelia Earhart Fashions. Her designs were made from fabrics such as parachute silk and featured buttons which looked like airplane propellers showing her love of aviation. In this video I share the details of creating an Amelia Earhart-inspired ensemble for the 1930s wardrobe and some of the perfect touches to complete the outfit.
