1940s silhouettes: broad shoulders, demure bust line, rolled hair, accent color deep and rich, not pastel or bright - almost military in shape, which was the style of the 1940s. Women's figures were not exaggerated in the 1940s, slim and somewhat straight with broad shoulders is what comes to mind with 40s fashion.
