Pictures: Vintage Skirts from 1900 to 1950′s

Today's post Pictures: Vintage Skirts from 1900 to 1950′s from Vintage Dancer.

This weeks photo roundup is all about skirts. Versatile, easy to wear, casual or glamorous the skirt has a long history and a diverse range of styles. Take a look at these vintage skirts from 1900-1950:

Two sisters showing off the classic Edwardian fashion of long skirts and white blouses.

1922 spring skirts. Which one would you wear? The blue suit in the upper right was the Facebook fan vote.

Walking down the boardwalk in 1929. I love her sport knit top and pleated skirt and his suit has some serious swagger! Read about the history of 1920s skirts here.

1933 Skirt Suits. Look like something Bonnie of Bonnie of Clyde would wear.

More 1933 skirts. I love the center “Rhumba” skirt or what we might call a jumper dress.

Teens in plaid skirts, white blouses and saddle shoes. 1940s.

Miss Jane Ryan as a “Decorative dinner companion in pierrot pajamas with dramatic tie-on skirt.” 1946 from the California magazine. I love the giant skirt over pant look.

I would love to make this “clock dress.” What a perfect idea for a circle skirt! Circa 1951

1952 Audrey Hepburn wearing the “New Look” style of full skirt and white blouse. She makes it her own with her signature black “flatties” ballet slippers.

1955 full skirts in plenty of big bold colors. Read about the history of 1950s shirts here.

1950′s Pendleton skirt ad. What I love about this brand is that they are still being made today in nearly the same vintage cuts and materials. They prove classic fashion never goes out of style. See some of my fav 1940s and 1950s pendleston skirts.
