Why do I like fashion of the 1950s?

I like fashion of the 1950s because this period was very beautiful! There were many long skirts, dresses, hats, and gloves. Prints with polk dots and flowers were also popular. Fashion icons of that time wore ballet flats and heels.

Many of these clothes became classic for us. Famous women of that time such as: Grace Kelly, Marilyn Monroe, and Audrey Hepburn did a lot for modern fashion.

I have several clothes and shoes from 1950s in my wardrobe.
