Vogue

Everyone can wear fashion, however, not everyone has style. Except for the cigarette, (which was very popular during that era), these two women has grace and style. Don't you love them?

  3. I love the pictures. I think people were much more sophisticated back then. If you watch old movies, women wore dresses, hats and white gloves just to go to the grocery store!

  4. I was born in 1957, and I grew up thinking that adults went dancing in nightclubs and dressed for dinner just like folks did on Perry Mason and The Dick van Dyke show. Now that was some fashion!

  5. I remember every Easter -- my mom taking me out for a new outfit that included gloves and a hat!

  8. Love these Vogue covers. I am always looking for old movies where the people are sophisticated and dress accordingly. Just saw "Laura" and "Leave Her to Heaven". Loved Clifton Webb in the
    latter.

  9. I love those covers, especially the colors. I think covers were better when they were just pictures without the titles of all the articles inside strewn about.

    It's so strange to see the cigarettes things have really changed in some regards and in others they stay the same....the jacket in the red picture is in style today!

  10. I agree with the style and the earlier comment on the simple spare covers.

    Perhaps that era was enough to leave more things to the imagination than we previously thought?
