The style of 1945 came to life during the festivities

The Liberation Festival gave visitors a glimpse into civilian life and the aesthetics of the time in 1945. The retro salon, which became an oasis of elegance amidst the celebrations, attracted great interest. Professional stylists here recreated the beauty of the mid-1940s and transformed ladies into icons of the time. The atmosphere was imbued with nostalgia and joy, which were an integral part of the liberation of that time. The year 1945 was a turning point in women's fashion. After years of wartime hardship and practical, austere clothing, the desire for distinctive femininity was returning to fashion. The symbol of this era was the so-called "Victory Rolls", or victory waves, which were the pinnacle of hairdressing at the time. These rich hairstyles with hair rolls above the forehead were not just an aesthetic matter, but with their name and form they expressed hope and celebration of the end of the war. Makeup was dominated by deep red lipstick, which at the time was considered a symbol of determination and undisguised optimism. Interestingly, despite the post-war shortage of goods, women of the time managed to achieve miracles.
