DuringWorld War I，every one in three American men left home to serve in the military between 1941 and1945，and womenworked in jobs outof the home. These women not only continued to manage their households，buttheyalso worked in factories，labs，powerplants and etc.The war completelychanged theresponsibilityofwomen in the workforce duringthese years-and this completely changed how they dressed.Because women were doing more tasks requiring labor like driving trucks， safetyand practicalitybecamemore important over lookingattractive.Workingwomen put away their high-heeled shoesandsilkdressesandworecotton shirtsand blue jeans instead.During the war，certain materialswere saved for military purposes.And to use lessof cloth，clothes makers began designing shorter skirts and slimmer clothing.By the end of the war， over six million American women had joined the workforce，andnearlyoneoutofeveryfourmarried women worked outside the home.Although many werereplaced by men once the men returned from war，workingoutof thehomechangedpeople'sviews ofwhatwomen could do.
