The 1950s
Audrey Hepburn, Grace Kelly, Elizabeth Taylor, Sophia Loren, Marilyn Monroe and Marlene Dietrich... From the infamous red lips to below-mid-calf length, full-skirt, pointed bust, small waist, and rounded shoulder line, a tailored feminine look with gloves and pearls, tailored suits with fitted jackets & peplums with a pencil skirt. Phew,1950s... how could we not indulge? The era when being a woman was FUN!
We couldn't help ourselves, we took inspiration from this era and incorporated our own flare as you'll see in the pictures.
After all, elegance is timeless (Fashion vs Style)
Day dresses had fitted bodices and full skirts, with jewel or low-cut necklines or Peter Pan collars. Shirt-dresses and halter-top sundresses were also popular. Skirts were narrow or very full, held out with petticoats, while poodle skirts were a brief fad.
