When we think 1950s, we think Marilyn Monroe, and the fabulous 50s era cars.Fifties dresses, 50s dresses, 1950s dresses, vintage dresses, swing dresses, Marilyn Monroe dresses, retro dresses,etc., are a few of the descriptions we use to identify dresses from the fifties decade. Movie star glam most accurately describes the 50s decade. We associate many of the popular 50s movie stars with the decade. The vintage movie star dresses and gowns can be re created. In this blog, we will learn and understand how to best recreate these daring very provocative looks in good taste. We will learn fron the stars and the awesome dressmakers of their times.
Beehive hair styles, crinoline slips, and really red lipstick were popular. Oh... and don't forget the fabulous cars. Especially the pink fishtail Cadillacs, and the Thunderbirds. The cars were as stylish as the stars and their dresses. Hope you enjoy this glance back in time. And while we are time traveling, we will bring back some of the dresses by recreating them and showing them off.

Pink was a popular color in the 50s in clothes and cars...home fashions too.
