I found out that the 50's is not comparable to the way we live and dress. In the 50's it was a very formal period. Many people wore dresses, skirts, and dressy shoes. In addition, they did not like to wear anything dirty at all. They were very conservative and owned a lot of the same thing, so they didn't wear the same thing in the week. Some events that happened was the baby boom and the Korean War. In 1957, the baby boom occurred and it sparked 4.7 million child births just for one year.
Since the 50's was a formal period, the women hardly dressed casual, but if they did, they wore sailor outfits, Capri's, jumpers, and dungarees. Almost every child owned a few jumpers. They would often wear them to play outside in. Many designers back then were, Norman Norell, James Galanos, and Adrian. The fabrics that were very popular were plaid and very bright colors and designs. Back then, many people didn't go to the beach but if they did, their swimsuit had to be about two inches above the belly button. Also, almost everyone wore swimming caps on their heads. They said the brighter they were the better. The silhouette that was popular in this era was the bell dress. It was mostly worn to their Junior and Senior Prom, long belled colorful dress. They also had sock hope were you could only wear socks and they would wear a casual jumper. Every woman wore gloves, and they came in many different sizes and colors and they even had ones that matched some shirts. It was said that your outfit wasn't complete without the gloves. .
Men dressed a little different than they do now. Almost everyday they wore dress suits. At work they had specific colors that they had to wear, it was charcoal, dark navy, black, or brown, with a tie. If they did dress down, they would wear a dressy sweater, flannel, and dungarees. For their letter jackets for sports, they would use cardigan sweaters that came in many sizes and lots of colors.
