  • I would love to live in an era where people dressed like this and acted appropriately out in public. But even if we were to bring this back, I don't think it would work now. We as a society have been desensitized to all the sluttyness and whorish styles that are popular now. And frankly, it just wouldn't be the same because this isn't the 1950's anymore. Simply dressing the part doesn't cut it. And people aren't gonna change their attitude and the way they act.

  • 50s were great, if your white.

  • @chilvari I agree. I think society has gone backwards as far as decency and manners are concerned.

  • Always a good song to sing along with.

  • A lovely period for women's fashion, very feminine. For a first-hand account of attending these fashion shows, check out:

  • LOVED the fashions of the time. but don't forget the extreme sexism and racism of the time.

  • I love this, definitely going to start dressing like this.

  • did fashions have to be approved by flaming gay guys back then?

  • @trinity2112 yea.ask this to black people in 50's.

  • @trinity2112 im 12 dead serious and I wish i was in the year 1950 :(

  • @chilvari

    It isn't just desensitising. It's also a lack of knowledge. Most women these days aren't taught the same things they were in the 50's, nor do mothers show their daughters how to do things. In some respects this is a good thing, in other respects rather bad. There is also the fact that modern clothes are much easier to wear than their 1950's counter parts: stockings v tights/pantyhose being a prime example of that.

  • im just 15 but i wish i could live in the 50's. i hate todays world.
