Women in the 1950s typically wore tight dresses with belts to highlight their waists, gloves when driving, and scarves in their hair. They often wore heavily colored makeup, especially turquoise eye shadow and orange lipstick, that coordinated with their handbags and outfits. Fashions have become more varied now, as women can freely wear skirts, trousers, jeans, and other styles. Personal style has also evolved, with both young and older women favoring tighter and shorter clothing options compared to the 1950s. Makeup is no longer mandatory and colors are chosen to match different outfits or time periods.
