In the late 1940s, the shortage of fabric is not a problem as they were at the beginning of the decade, so decoration clothing has been allowed to grow.

In 1952, the peak struck in the United States "Poodlemania," according toJennifer Moore Greyer Fashion Mania Through American Story. actual poles on their own wereconsidered status symbolsBut the connection betweenfluffy dogsAnd Parisian fashion took things at another level. In the 1950s, they were all on the big screen like thecolored bouquetDoris daydebilitation In 1952, thisApril in Paris.Soon, poodle models started appearing on sweaters, scarves, handbags, and, of course, skirts. Yet despite ubiquity, this trend has been quickly put away in the obligations of fashion history.

Take thisBalenciaga Night-Dress Tour Look from 1957, for example. Scandalous!

Compared to the tight hourglass dresses that were popular in the 1950s, trapeze dresses, without size and triangular, seemed modern by the end of the decade. The Dior Collection of 1958, designed by the one and onlyYves Saint Laurent, introduced the form - and here is his Royal HighnessPrincess margaretTake the ridiculous look in.

Theapron skirt Was one of the most emblematic symbols of the late 1950s and 60s. Fluffy, colorful vibrant and designed to be worn by housewives, it is a vestige of a bygone. Of course, these clothes were feminine and fun, but they were not practical for cooking and cleaning, and were a sterling example of women's clothing that had to be fashionable but not remotely.

The panties, the hybrid skirt pant, enter and out of style like the tides. But they wereExtremely popular in the 1960s-Tilization of a holiday clothing. Like the McCall Note blog, they were oftenMarketed as "PlaySuits" for adults. Grimce!

Sometimes fashion is supposed to be as accessible as possible. And sometimes it's supposed to be likeinaccessible only possible. For an example of the latter, look no further than this 1960 problem ofVogue, who presented aTurban impossible to shoot. And Actress and Princess of MonacoGrace Kelly, brought this strange white turban in 1961 to the White House, proving that even the most glamorous women make fashion mistakes.

In the mid-1960s, withThe spatial race Fully in progress, it is not surprising that fashion reflects the cultural obsession of the time. Designers likeAndré Courrèges andPierre Cardin entered a spatial couture race in its own right. In fact, asTO Reports, Courreges showed such interest in space tripsNasa even invited him to visit Cape Canaveral in Florida.
