Memories of Fashion - Hornbeam

All the teenage lads wore white silk scarves.

Dresses were getting shorter!

Underskirts had a lot of netting on them.

Girls never went out without hats and gloves.

They made their own clothes, even out of curtains.

They had utility cupons for clothes - they had to save up to buy special outfits.

I remember having a de mob suit (a mack, trilby, suit and suitcase) - and they gave me coupons, though six months later the coupons finished.

A man never went out without a tie.
