1950s Style Clothing & Fashion for Women

1950s style clothing is timeless. Cool cats and hipsters made the 1950s decade iconic for its youthful freedoms and fun sense of style. Fifties fashion goes beyond poodle skirts and saddle shoes, however, because teenagers weren’t the only ones setting clothing trends. 1950s housewives played a role in defining the ultra-feminine style we love to wear today.

For 1950s menswear look here.

We gathered links to affordable and 1950s repro clothing brands to help you find the perfect outfit.
