![]() Amongst the more famous actions of the Nazis after 1933, a more obscure focus for the party was the establishment of the German Fashion Institute (Deutsches Modeamt). This was another means of controlling the lives of women in Nazi Germany and aimed to establish Aryan fashions. In particular styles were made to be feminine whilst Jewish and other non-Aryan designers were shunned. In this fascinating little article, Jane Thynne explores how Hitler attempted to create perfect Nazi women by controlling fashion. The article also looks at how prominent Nazi women duch as Magda Goebbels (pictured) refused to conform to the ideas of the institute, meaning that she was ultimately sacked from the Deutsches Modeamt later in 1933.
