For women, there were several clothes that were very popular. For example, there was the pencil dress, capri pants or wide dresses and skirts with petticoats. These dresses and skirts were mainly in pastel colours with beautiful flower patterns. With a 50s skirt or 50s dress from our range, you are guaranteed to be right at a 50s party.
