When Little Richard sang “all the flattop cats and the dungaree dolls, are headed to the gym for the sock hop ball” he summarized the now nostalgic informal dances held in high school gymnasiums during the 1950s. The classic movie, “American Graffiti”, depicts fifties-era teenagers dancing the stroll in their bobby-socked feet. So jump into a 1950s costume and slip off your shoes for a sweet stroll down memory lane.
1950scostumes are as varied as the popular cultured that defined the times. Wholesome teenage girls wore poodle skirts and chiffon scarves to the school sock hop while the dangerous bad boys ditched the dance all together and donned leather jackets, dungarees and white T-shirts with the sleeves rolled up. Whether you are hanging out at the malt shop or cruising in your big-finned convertible, you’re sure to look too cool for school in a 1950s costume. The television show, “Happy Days”, brought a range of 1950s costumes including the Fonz and the movie “Grease” turned out the Pink Ladies girl gang.
