Women's fashions: year by year: 1949-1980
Year by year images of women's fashions, 1949-1980, with 4 frames per year - more or less arbitrary selection- pics not in any chronological order within each year.(erratum: I'm sorry but the photo of two girls outside their boutique at 1967b right hand side was, in fact, taken in 1968; Someone has also queried 1968b left hand side. saying it looks like 1970/71: am currently checking but am afraid original source lost in mists of time)
The music is 'Aphrodite' by Alessandro Carabelli (details at All About Jazz website)
WARNING!
1/Ideally, a slide show like this should be put together by someone with some credentials in, or a wide knowledge of, fashion history (rather than a mild interest)- but I did it anyway. I like the way the images convey the passing of years and decades.
2/ To the best of my knowledge (!) all images were published in the year shown - except that of the hippie girl in 1968b, which I believe is a later watercolour rendition of a pic of someone who attended a concert in Hyde Park, London, in that year. Ive had to try and judge which sources to trust for dates of post 1960 pattern illustrations and several individual scans.
3/Images should be seen as picked at random from each year and jumbled up within a year.
The 4 frames per year do not represent any chronological order. Because fashion seasons begin in spring and autumn it is possible that things like
Year A (all Dec pics)
Year B (all Jan pics)
Year C (all Dec pics)
(meaning situations where 2 consecutive years containing one season are followed by 3 seasons being skipped before the images for the next year) could happen but blind chance makes it unlikely.
Besides the hippie girl in 1968b, there are 2 other non-contemporary images: the mannequins from the Bath costume museum, at 1963a(rh) and 1970b(lh).

the40s till 60s are my favorite fashion era, they have some of the most elegant, sophisticated and modest evening gowns.
1963 seemed to be the year when fashion really started to change.

Jackie Kennedy made it a trend ever since 1961 people followed her fashion.
WOW the difference between 58 and 68 is just amazing when you see it side by side
Loved this. Remembered the clothes from 1970s and 1980s. Fashion started to be more youthful in the 60s prior to that you dressed like yr Mum. Loved the trousers in the 70s. Just imagine doing all your gardening and cleaning, walking the dog and everything else in a dress or skirt when nowadays we wear jeans. And gloves! White dress gloves!
Bellisimo todo.. Recordar es vivir.. Hasta la música me encantó..
Nice video. Liked the 50's the best in this video but there were some good pictures in the 1960's and 1970's section. Best dress in video. The white one at 6.47. The 70's seemed to have a revival of long, flowing dresses which flowed in the 1980's with Laura Ashley dresses,etc.
Thank you for the upload. I was born in the late 1950s and remember by mother's and aunt's wardrobes. This is pretty spot on for that time frame for the main stream American woman. I note it seems some sewing pattern companies (such as McCall and also Butterick) renderings are in this compilation...my mother had a Singer and sewed my clothes in the 1960s...I had many memories of going to the fabric stores and her choosing material, thread, zippers, buttons, rick-a-rack, etc. I also remember the Sears & Roebuck catalogs and using my babysitting money in the early 1970s to purchase clothes from their popluar "Lemon Frog Shop"!!! It does seem fashion for women took a dive after the 1960s. I ended up with a retail career in fashion in the late 70s and I personally feel the lowest point for women's fahsion was 1970-1985 or so. Then it got really interesting again as the 90s approached. However, the styles of the days before the 1970s, in my humble opinion, were the classiest and most beautiful.
"The vintage (old school) look is always classy and cool."
Man this music is perfect for this
The music is PERFECT....
Wow.....I must say, fashion from 1949 to 1964, was pretty classy. But my, how it took a dip, until 1980. Just my opinion.
Thanks for posting this video. Beautiful vintage fashion and beautiful music - what else could you ask for ?
Nice to look at these fashions over many years. Brings back memories.
1950s style still looks fresh and stylish. Great fabric patterns too.see Swedish Josef Frank and Viola Gråsten
50's fashion was so flattering to a women's figure. What happened?

Drugs kicked in...that happened hence the fashion until today. The 50's were best!! Love that fashion era. Pure class.
The pattern photo's from the 70's looked like McCall patterns. My mom used to make a lot of my cloths when I was growing up, and she had a lot of those patterns. When I was in Jr High, my friends parents use to get my mom to make cloths for my friends also.
I love the classiness of everything before the 1970s, but I would honestly miss pants and shorts so much.
Bring back the '50s!
for me the best fashion ,and I am 31 years old but I love it I wish it would come again.
Wonderful videos (1795-1948 and 1949-1980)!!! Please,upload a video about the 1981-2009 period....that,s excitement!! Thanks!!
Wonderful compilation, this one aswell as the earlier one! Keep on the good work:)
my mom was a fashion model exclusive to neiman marcus, love the fashions..:)
When I'm 70+, i wonder if i'll be that old lady wearing a long cardigan, a boyfriend tee, leggings, and white converse... because my grandma's fashion is like the ones in the 1950s with that matching skirt and blouse and a hat... and my grandpa wears a sweater vest, a long sleeve button up, long cargo pants, and those vintage hats.. it nakes me wonder if those are the ezact clothes they wore as teenagers..

simb simbb I was born during WWII. THE 50s were the best clothing even for children. I loved all of it.
Thank you, my life just flashed before my eyes! Wonderful. Very well done. By the way guys the 70s were great!
Merci pour cette magnifique vidéo!!!!!!c'est avec grand plaisir a regarder toutes ces défilés de mode magnifiques de 1949-1980!!!!!!!!que j'aime beaucoup bravo!!!!!!!qui est aussi de mon temps!!!!!!!!!!!avec tout mes compliments!!!!!!!!!!
I love the way that ladies dressed from the 20s or the 30s up until the year 1990.
Throughout history people have worn very revealing clothes and got up to some very sordid things. So once again the young (as they did in the 60s/70s with the mini) are wearing revealing clothes and shock horror the older generation disapprove. Men will always ogle the young...you need to accept that fact. I just love the clothes of 50/60s and at the moment sexy wiggle dresses are all the rage and I'm stocking up before things change. Thanks for posting x
I wish there would be a montage of fashion from 1981 to now.
I'm not sure if I'll go on to 2010 - depends how easy it is to find enough material - esp mail order catalogue stuff. I get the impression that regular periodicals with updated fashion plates didn't exist until the 1790s and that there was also much more variation from country to country before then so that it may be a bit too difficult or pointless to go back to the 16thC on a year by year basis.
1980s is so funny and beautiful at the same time that's what Dead Or Alive wore 1940s looks like the VonTraps
Yves Saint Laurent,1936-2008 a great French fashion designer.....
Because of CD burning error I lost the exact source for each image - I could track back where I got them from although I'm having trouble re-locating one particularly useful sixties site. If anyone is interested the I could send a list of sites used from my bookmark folder to anyone requesting via youtube messages.
WOuld LOVE 19981 to 1989 as well, beautiful stuff here :-)
I listened to this in class today and thought about how worthless I am. No matter how much I try. Such a perfect sad thinking song
If only there was a video for fashions from 1981 onwards, to show how fashions changed for the the last 30+ years. I mostly like the early 60s fashion. Perhaps Mad Men may have something to it.
I feel like the music reminds me of walking through one of those fancy malls and I like the outfits from the 50s 60s and the first part of the 70s when it got to 80 it got ugly
Very interesting. Can't wait for 1981-2009/2010. It should be very interesting to watch the evolution of fashion from the 1790s to today. Ever thought of going earlier than 1795, though? maybe the 1590s?
I think the big fashion news years are 1958, when the fit became more sleek and short anticipating the 1960s, and 1964, when the New Look was finally gone and boxy suits and sheath dresses became the dominant silhouettes.
@NotAWarPerson The music is 'Aphrodite' by Alessandro Carabelli (details at All About Jazz website where I downloaded it from the free samples)
We went from classy gloves and hats to paying hundreds of dollars for RIPPED up denim pants, and sneakers! Has it not occurred to anyone how the public has been played for suckers and will buy any piece of trash if it's "sold" to us correctly?
1980 seems to be the only year in the 80s decade that had better fashion. I would've add 1981 but that was the year when shoulder pads and 80s power dressing began via the tv show Dynasty. I grew up in the 80s and while I love the 80s as a whole but the fashion is the thing I didn't like about the 80s.
Nice! Thanks so much for this upload !
Excellent video! Tnk you very much for sharing😁❤️🙏!New viewer!
a great video, a journey to the past! bravo!

The Trapeze dress (1958b - centre) and the 'Mondrian' shift dress (1965b - far right) are his.
The hippies and the bell bottoms from the 70s were cool in my opinion.
great video. well done.x

1954 omg 😍
Magnifique! Comme les femmes étaient élégantes et mises en valeur avant la dictature du pantalon et du jean!
i agree with you.Sadly,clothing from the 50's are not coming back(unless a designer brings it back?) ,SO I got my sawing machine.I plan to make my own clothing from the 50's!...omg!,I'll be a complete outsider!lol!..but is so sofphisticated and classy,my Gosh!
Love the music. Why don't we dress like that anymore. That's the time when ladies dressed like ladies.
I couldn't agree with you more. Too bad I can't sew. I may need you to make me some designer originals. I'll be a paying customer :) I'm sure it will be a lot better than half the crap hanging from the rack today.

@TheNouveauxdecadence I was going to ask that. I would love to see a 1980s fashion video simular to this one.
what is this song? it is awesome
i do wear dress like shirts to my university with leggings because i prefer them to jeans and tight shirts but people look at me like i have gone crazy which is annoying
Something just went horribly wrong in the 70's..
Yep I think i like the fifties evening gowns! Than You!
Based on this video, '66 is when the fashion started to look ugly. '78 is when it started to improve a little bit.

@@FunnyBunnyHelena I agree. The 8os were horrific. The shape of the 197os was the best but could have used better fabrics.
I like the 70's the best because I like platform shoes and bell bottom jeans.
I'd love to see one from `80 till the present. How it deteriorates even MORE! lol.
Great video!! Great music!!
I think the 70's had some good fashion.
More and more crazy since 1965
Got to get some pattern for the clothes I like made with a few changes.
la moda de 1970s se me hace corriente, aunque tambien muy bella, la moda de 1960s si que tenia estilo y buen arte en el mundo de la moda!! pero me gusta mas la moda de 1950s , muy elegante y hermosa
ÉPOCA CHARMOSA. MUI CHARMOSA
wow that was fashion i love 1970's and 1980's ever!
جيل الخمسين مثل جيلنه هسه وازياء هسه
Make 1980-2020 please
They where so beautiful back then
In the mid-to-late 1960s, the change in the dress of the masses was so much related to the anti-cultural movement.
What about 1980 to 2016 ?
فين ده كنت اجيب المجله بتاعت الازياء بتاعت زمان رحت فين
Mode féminine jusqu'en 1968 fort jolie, particulièrement aux années 50. Christian Dior un artiste de grand talent!!!! Puis en 1968 le tsunami. Une catastrophe culturelle!!!! arrivée envahissante des pantalons, très bisard, c'est les hommes qui pour les horribles et très inconfortables pantalons taille basse ont ouvert le bal. Puis les femmes se sont engouffrées dans la brèche, plus c'est laid, mieux c'est..... C'est pratique disent-elles, et passent le temps de la journée à remonter ces infectes guenilles. Elles ressemblent à des cow boys, des mercenaires , et ne réalisent pas leur laideur!!! A présent nouvelle vague catastrophique: les tatouages, scarifications et piercings, merci les USA pour cette belle culture à l'envers...!!! J'en dit pas plus, ma tête est déjà mise à prix pour un autre sujet, ils vont me l'arracher..... Salutations.
