I couldn't possibly choose just one favourite when there are that many beautiful skirts. I love the permanent pleat skirt, and the navy and pink floral border skirt. I was just thinking of making another full skirt.
Like Steph, I love the box pleated ones, but of the ones pictured here I love the one with all the tiny little pleats. I hope they're permanent press though! That much fabric at my waist would just be a disaster, though, sigh....
Gosh the prints just kill me, they're always so awesome. I love that white skirt with the black leaves and bright splashes of large pink flowers. Though I do love the add for the "proportioned slim skirt". And only $3.98...!
Those are so beautiful, they make me want spring to arrive even faster! I do love the yellow one. The heavily pleated one in the middle is beautiful too! I wonder how much fabric that one took!
I'm a sucker for big, full, box-pleated skirts myself. The yellow is pretty.

ReplyDeleteIndeed, 50s fashion is wonderful, I think that clothing is the time with more color and fun.
ReplyDeleteI like the dress above your yellow one with the turquoise belt - I would love to have that in my wardrobe for summer!
ReplyDeleteOh, hey, there's my shrug! (top left)

ReplyDeleteIt's the plaid for me, through and through.
ReplyDeleteWow, that pleated one is amazing. Makes me think of all the places I can get some fabric pleated...lol. :D Great scans!
ReplyDeleteJust found you blog by way of a search on 1950's... I love your post, and I am off to my sewing machine!
ReplyDeleteLove the black flowers and black top one.
