A 50s Costume For Halloween?

Pristine blouses, perfectly ironed pedal pushers and canvas shoes were a casual look of women in the 50s. When they headed to a Soc Hop, however, they were dressed for a wild time on the dance floor in long poodle skirts, saddle shoes and their hair was in a perfect ponytail. Men of the 50s were seen in bowling shirts, tapered khakis matched with the perfect side part--Perhaps with a letter jacket, too! This was a memorable time for many and you can relive it for the night in a 50s costume. You can piece together an authentic homemade costume or buy a 50s costume. Find out tips and tricks.

Before you start piecing together the perfect 50s costume items, make sure you have your make up and hair perfected. The period marked definite trends in makeup and accessories and the distinct look for 50s costumes requires bright red lipstick, penciled eyebrows, liquid eyeliner, wide lapel collars, hats of all types or a brooch. Many women preferred their hair in straight as a rail with their ends flipped outward. For the ultimate chic 50s look, don't forget your cat eye glasses in a bright color. If you can't decide on footwear, shoes for 50s costumes should always include one of the following popular types: pointy toes and a tall thin heel, plain canvas shoe or a saddle Oxford.

Just like fashion today, you see women in vastly different styles. The same was true in the 1950s. Before you choose your 50s costume, you need to decide which womens costume style is for you. A 1950s style that is sometimes overlooked is the dangerous and risque 1950s women. This women wore tight secretary dresses, low cut tops, showed her arms and lots of leg, wore very high heels, and topped her look off with a flower in her hair. Is your date a greaser? Then the dangerous and sexy look may be the right style for you.

If your next school dancer has a 50s theme, consider that old standby the poodle skirt, which is available in several colors including turquoise, red and black. You can morph into a Sock Hop Sweetie with a poodle skirt that goes further up the leg than most and a beehive wig. Your choice of 50s costumes may last but one All Hallows Eve, but rock and roll are forever!The author commonly writes about costumes and costume accessories for SummitFashions.

The fashion rages of the 1950s were the direct result of World War II. Without a connection to the fashion capitol of the world, which was Paris in those days, creators of 50s costumes and fashions were forced to come up with their own unique designs. In addition, many popular trends, such as leather bomber jackets, were adapted from wartime clothing. Pedal pushers (aka capri pants) were influenced by Italian fashions and Hawaiian shirts and Bermuda shorts were at least partly related to the fact that Hawaii had just become a state This was a memorable time for many and you can relive it for the night in a 50s costume.
