@calalilygirl I don't remember the 1950s. I was born during Eisenhower's second therm. I grew up in the suburbs of a major city in the 1970s. Even those who lived them were sooooo glad when they were finally OVER!!
the end of Vietnam, the oil embargo, the worst president of the 20th century!!!
And nothing positive to focus on.
When I was in high school, many girls still wore panty girdles under their jeans. Often the leg bands showed through.

@gkiltz0 I think it was, even into the sixties. I appreciate your take on the 50's. I wasn't there, bit WAS there in the 70's and I appreciate that you've said they were like the 70's. Never would have thought there were any similarities. I actually did love the 70's, so maybe I experienced a feel for the 50's and didn't know it! Love watching these clips and this show in general.

Inspect was pretty close to test them really.

@tea4ular In 1954, a girdlewas pretty much standard "Girl Gear"

@calalilygirl Until you take a deeper look!! Sorta like the 1970s

The 50's seemed like such a heavenly decade.

She did not. She didn't need to, she always had a lovely figure.

One of the tens of thousands. She was an amazing woman, way ahead of her time in all ways.

@SOLE2SOUL - It was April 4, 1954.

That's my Grandmother!! She wrote a great book "Look Back and Laugh; Confessions of a Teen in the Thirties" - she died July 24, 2008. Loved by many. This was filmed when she was just starting in her career. She was a well-known "underfashions" model and even modeled the first diamond studded corset that had a worth of $1 million (looong before Victoria's Secret).
