BBC Archive - Men, Women and Clothes - Part 3

Just watched part 3 - Fashions in faces and figures.

In this episode of the fashion history series, Doris Langley Moore explores the odd correlation between the amount of facial hair on men and trends in covering up in women's fashion. We also get to see Benny Hill in various states of hirsuteness, and a young Vanessa Redgrave demonstrates early 20th-century use of face powder.
