So, for this 1940s Christmas at Ancient House I need to look the part. I didn't bring my full wardrobe with me to England, so even if I own something 1940ish, its not here. I looked in a few thrift shops and even regular clothing stores and haven't found anything to my liking.It occurs to me that dressing like Rosie the Riveter might be the easiest way to go, but maybe she's too American? I'm open to suggestions...or clothing donations.

Maybe too American...but you are An American Libriariean in...
I suggest Dickies blue cotton coveralls that you get at Sears and the polka dot scarf.
I think that representation of how Americans not only sacrificed in Europe but also what was done in the states would be very educational to them (but maybe they already know).
Also consider this, we may be called upon by our current president to make sacrifices in some way to pull the US out of this economic slump. If the book I just finished "Hot, Flat and Crowded" is correct, we are going to have to buckle down and give up somethings or else we will be left behind in the world economy.
