The 1930s
in the U. S. A. :
the decade of severe economic depression
which eclipsed the lives of all
the decade which the Star Spangled Banner
was approved as the national anthem and seemed
almost hymn to unite a nation
the decade during which Franklin Delano Roosevelt
won two of his history-making four terms as
President of the United States
the decade in which Jesse Owens
a Black American Olympiad
won four gold medals at the 1936 Summer Olympic Games, Berlin-
attended by Adolph Hitler, German Führer and head of the Nazi party
the decade during which Bonnie Parker
and her co-hort in crime, Clyde Champion Barrow
committed interstate crimes of burglary, kidnapping, murder.
Wanted, hunted and later killed by FBI agents (1934)-
the two were the stuff of which tales are told for generations.

For autumn 2016,
fashion label Baartmans and Siegel
founded by design duo, Wouter and Amber
(graduates from London College of Fashion, 2010) –
showcased a collection which included ladies trouser suiting
with a definite ’30s Bonnie and Clyde-esque “wanted” by the
FBI (fashion briefed individual) edge!
…
It’s a style combination of
Bonnie’s fearless attitude and
Clyde’s tailored suits.
