Fashion in the 1950s saw a clear gender divide. While men and boy’s fashion moved towards a more casual day-to-day style, women and girl’s fashion prioritized elegance, formality, and perfectly matched accessories.
The 1950s was fundamentally a time of conformity. The mini skirts and wild fashions don’t arrive until the 1960s. Most kids didn’t look quite that cool. We dressed very conservatively.
A set of cool vintage photos were found by Steven Martin that show what people wore in the 1950s.
