1. 50’s Clothing and Hair Styles
As we are flashing back to the 50’s in our music video, we need
to have an idea on what the dancers in our video should wear
to make it look authentic and professional.
2. 50’s Clothing: Girls
‘The New Look’ Christian Dior
The ‘New Look’ signature shape was characterized by a below-mid-calf
length, full-skirt, pointed bust, small waist, and rounded shoulder line.
The "softness" of the New Look was deceptive; the curved jacket peplum shaped
over a high, rounded, curved shoulders, and full skirt of Dior's clothes relied
on an inner construction of new interlining materials to shape the silhouette.
3. 50’s Clothing: Boys
In 1950, Harper's Bazaar proclaimed the "Return of the Beau". Savile Row
introduced the "New Edwardian Look", featuring a slightly flared
jacket, natural shoulders, and an overall narrower cut, worn with a curlybrimmed bowler hat and a long slender overcoat with velvet collar and cuffs.
This was the style commandeered by the Teddy Boys, who added bright socks
and a bootlace necktie, achieving a "dizzy combination of Edwardian dandy
and American gangster."
