1950s blouses, like other pieces of 50s clothing, came in different shapes, sizes, colors, and styles. Here we take a look at the most popular 50s vintage looks for women.

In the new exhibit by photographer Mark Shaw, we (finally) get to see what went on behind the scenes at Paris couture in the 1950s.

The gray days of winter have me looking forward to spring and lighter/brighter clothing. I scanned these from a 1949 insert of the pattern department of the Philadelphia Inquirer. The green ensemble with matching beret in the first picture has my name all over it. I love the color combination. While the 30s is my absolute favorite era, there are so many things I love about the designs of this time period too. So pretty!
