Trendy w modzie „robotniczej” w Polskiej Kronice Filmowej

The Polish Chronicle is an excellent source of knowledge about life during the Polish People’s Republic. As a propaganda medium, the chronicle smuggled in broadcast editions the guidelines given to it in circulars containing censorship instructions and guidelines. In the case of fashion matters, this was the removal of all elements unrelated to socialist Poland (including those stemming from Polish national identity), the promotion of qualities such as simplicity, modesty, practicality, as well as the negation and elimination of all extravagance, manifestations of non-conformism and the desire to express one’s ‘self’ through the choice of clothing. The article provides an overview of the fashion issues brought up in the pages of the Chronicle in relation to both national and international fashion. The analysis covers both the editions relating strictly to fashion, but also those showing the everyday life of Poles, and therefore presenting their style of dress both at work and in leisure time
