How to Create a 50’s Costume for Women
erin on Jul 31st 2009
Go back to the days of Grease, diners and jukeboxes with a fun and flirty 50’s costume. Ladies, follow these three steps and you’ll be transported back in time:
1) Wear a short sleeved button up blouse in a solid color. White works best, but go with any color that will match your 50’s costume skirt.
2) The best part of the 50’s costume is the poodle skirt. You can either buy a black skirt, or one in another solid color, or simply buy an iron-on poodle applique. Make sure the skirt goes just below your knees.
3) ull your hair back into a ponytail and tie a scarf around it. If you have shorter hair, tie the scarf around your neck.
4) Put on light eyemakeup and some pink lipstick. You want to keep the makeup light.
5) If you have white and black saddle shoes, wear those. Otherwise, white or solid colored sneakers will do. Make sure you wear white ankle socks to complete the look.
