What kind of clothes would teen girls have worn in the late 50's?

More specifically, 1957?
Would girls have worn any kind of jeans? Or shorts of any kind? (Were tank tops invented then? If so, would women have worn them?) I know if they did, it would certainly not be like how ours look nowadays.
Would they ever owned/driven/rode a motorcycle?

Any other info, like hairstyles would be great!
Thank you!



Answer
Most of the time girls wore skirts or dresses. They would have worn a nice blouse with a skirt, no tanks or pants:P



I've included a bunch of pictures:

Most women in the 50's kept their hair short, but there are hairstyles you can do to mimic 50's hair. I have included them below.

Here are some 50's hair tutorials:

Jewelry was simple, pearl studs and a pearl necklace.
For nail polish, go with red.



Hope I helped(:


P.S: Women would not have driven motorcycles, they barely drove cars. Men drove them around most of the time lol.

How can a 25-year-old woman dress to look upper class?

I want to look upper class (to fit in with my boyfriends millionaire family). How should I dress?


Answer
Most importantly, use good manners . Go for a natural, classic look. Clear nail polish, simple NOT trendy hair.A vintage 50s look is ideal if you have no money and need to look classy.You can pick up a knee length pencil skirt and blouse cheap.And its harder to tell its not high quality if its plain style.Pearls,pumps,impeccable manners : cant go wrong :)
