Rainy Art Deco weekend
My previous post was about knitwear which may be needed this year.

Raincoats and trenchcoats and umbrellas similar to what we have today. The clear plastic umbrellas that we can buy in the 1-2-3 shops were available from the mid-late 30s. If it's cool too, ladies and girls will want a beret and even wool gloves. Animal prints became popular from 1932 onwards.
