The 1940s and World War
II brought soil-hiding khaki and olive green, as well as patriotic reds and blues.
Doing its part for the war effort, the American textile industry even restricted
the number of colors available for fabric, thus suppressing the appetite for new
colors and new clothes every season. Brighter colors started to return after the
war years, though the political and social influences of the time kept colors
relatively restrained.
