The fashions are fabulous!
I sometimes lose track of the conversations in the movie when I focus on all the stylish clothes the ladies wear - especially to the Christmas party!
shareAh, the late-'50s.

Non-sequiturs are delicious.
A lot of modern day bustiers and panelling in crisp button down shirts take from a good deal of these fashions. The garments and fabric draped so beautifully even in ready-to-wear back then. Heck, look at any major current fashion houses and note how the 30's and 50's are a huge influence on how garments are designed....especially for their ads in recent years. Many fashions of the previous decades are truly beautiful to behold. Unfortunately today, we buy fabrics of the cheapest quality and manufacturing from the poorest countries with the fastest turnaround. Then we overcharge the masses. I do happen to adore the hats men wore back in the day. Wish it would come back.
Some cause happiness wherever they go; others WHENEVER they go.
I wish those days would come back, at least the fashions anyway.
