New Deal ("Uptown Funk" Parody) - @MrBettsClass

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Despite air raids and austerity, style was not in short supply in World War Two. An exhibition at the Imperial War Museum looks at how conflict abroad meant fashion at home had to change.

Clothing coupons limited what most people could buy and government rules directly impacted on the styles available. But amid the cutbacks, there was still colour.

Video narration by the IWM's Laura Clouting, a curator at the Fashion on the Ration exhibition.

The Make-do and Mend credo - given official support by the Board of Trade in 1942 - tried to make people think differently about where they got clothes from.

With coupons limiting what could be bought in the shops, old garments at the back of wardrobes were adapted and given new life.

This woman's matching jacket and skirt may originally have started life as a man's pin stripe suit.

This child's cloak looks a a bit more rough and ready - it is made from an old blanket.

With the threat of night air raids across much of the UK, a new fashion item emerged.

This "siren suit" below is, arguably, an early form of onesie. Very fashionable in the war years, they were long sleeved trouser suits which could easily be pulled on in the rush to get to an air raid shelter.

Many people made their own - while more tailored styles were available in shops with coupons.

And to accompany the siren suit, women could carry their gas masks with them in the bottom of specially-designed handbags.

Publicity posters and pamphlets for the make-do and mend scheme featured a cartoon character called Mrs Sew and Sew.

Dress-making classes were set up - this image is from London in 1943.

Because jewellery was also on the ration, innovative ways were found to create bespoke items.

This plastic bracelet was reputedly made from the windscreen of a crashed German aircraft.

The design is embellished with a snake's head where the plastic was fused together.

This American-made compact case has a distinctive wartime twist.

Products like these made popular gifts for servicewomen, and the wives and girlfriends of servicemen.

Night-time blackout restrictions also led to innovative new products to help people be seen in the dark.

Selfridges in London pioneered a range of luminous accessories, as the photo below from 1940 shows.

Products like fake flowers...

And far from urging people to don dark coloured clothes in the blackout, the government actively encouraged the wearing of white clothes.

It wanted to halt a rise in the number of car accidents involving pedestrians.

You could also show your support for Allied forces by the way you dressed - with patriotic patterns and prints.

This underwear set was made by a dressmaker for Patricia Mountbatten - the elder daughter of Admiral Lord Louis Mountbatten.

It was made using a silk map given to her by a boyfriend in the RAF.

Textile and fashion company Jacqmar created scarves featuring popular wartime motifs and patriotic messages.

Produced in silk, rayon or wool, they were sold both at home and abroad.

They were not cheap though - and, when bought in Britain, each one also required two clothing coupons.

Finally, this design by Filmyra Fabrics celebrates Winston Churchill's leadership as prime minister.

It includes extracts from some of his most famous and inspirational speeches.

Fashion on the Ration is at the Imperial War Museum, London, until 31 August 2015.

Franklin D. Roosevelt was born in Hyde Park, NY in 1882. Born the fifth cousin of Theodore Roosevelt, Franklin was destined for politics. He attended Harvard University and Columbia Law School. In 1905, Franklin married Eleanor Roosevelt. He was elected to the New York Senate five years later. President Woodrow Wilson elected him Assistant Secretary of the Navy in 1913.

In 1921, however, tragedy struck. Roosevelt contracted Polio, a once common disease that rendered him unable to walk. Roosevelt did not let his condition destroy his political career. In 1928, he was elected governor of New York. Four years later, in 1932, he was elected as America's 32nd president. 1932 was a turbulent time in American history. The country was mired in the misery of its worst depression in history. Millions of people were unemployed and few banks remained in business. Roosevelt immediately implemented a sweeping plan known as the "New Deal" to bring recovery to agriculture and business, relief to the unemployed and to those in danger of losing businesses, farms, or homes. He also developed the Tennessee Valley Authority - which provided electricity and flood relief to poor southern farmers. Roosevelt also initiated Social Security reforms, raised taxes on the wealthy, implemented new controls over banks and public utilities, and started an enormous work relief program for the unemployed. Although Roosevelt's "New Deal" did not end the Great Depression, many historians believe it prevented the U.S. economy from decaying further, and it gave government more regulatory power. Roosevelt also presided over much of America's role in World War II, and devoted much time formulating a plan for the United Nations. Roosevelt was elected to a record four terms in the presidency. In 1945, however, Roosevelt died in office after suffering a cerebral hemorrhage. Today, he is honored on the front of the U.S. dime, and, on many U.S. postage stamps.
