1950s

: Marked by post-war optimism and prosperity, women wore cinched waists, full skirts, and figure-hugging dresses, exuding glamour and femininity. Men’s fashion became more formal with tailored suits, while casual and leisurewear (like denim and T-shirts) also gained popularity.

Formal wear was characterized by ultra-feminine, voluminous skirts (either tea-length or full-length ballgowns) made of taffeta, silk, or tulle. Strapless bodices, fitted waists, and dramatic embellishments like lace, bows, and embroidery were common. Pastel and jewel tones dominated, emphasizing classic Hollywood glamour.
