The poodle skirt hit its stride during the 1950s. Poodle skirts were very popular with the younger crowd. Teenagers really enjoyed wearing the fashionable clothing and fun skirts.

Poodle skirts were normally made out of felt. Felt was easy to use and inexpensive to make on your own if you needed. Felt also was easy to wash and add appliques to. The reason poodle skirts were called poodle skirts were because of the appliques that were added to the skirt. A popular applique choice was the french poodle.

While french poodles were not the only thing used on poodle skirts, they are the easiest to remember and the most popular choice of applique. Other appliques that were used were black dance records or telephones. Sometimes poodle skirts even had sayings put on them that were popular at the time.

Crinoline petticoats were also popular during this time. Petticoats were made in a variety of styles and colors to fit different styles and tastes. Crinoline petticoats were made out of netting that was starched so it would flare out. Crinoline petticoats were worn underneath poodle skirts to lift them up and give them the volume they needed.

Wearing hair in ponytails with chiffon scarves was a popular choice by girls in the 50s. Saddle shoes were also a popular shoes choice. The black and white oxford shoe was worn with white cotton socks and needed frequent polishing.

The 50s were a time of malt shops and soda shops. Teenage girls and boys loved to go to sock hops and listen to great 50's music. The 50's era may have passed, but they provide us with plenty of ideas for fun parties and themes.
