I may be wrong but I doubt that anybody wore their skirts as short as you show in some of the pictures. Above the knee I’m pretty sure was unheard of so those pictures look very odd to me, remembering how things were. Little girls had skirts that were hemmed right below the knee and women wore their skirts way below the knee. Mini-skirts did not come about until the mid-60’s. The gold sequined dress is definitely 1960’s. Everyone wore a slip underneath shirtwaist dresses. Otherwise sunlight shined through the skirt and you could see legs and higher and that was considered embarrassing (believe it or not)! You wouldn’t have the bottom of the two sides of the skirt pinned back like in the picture. If you did, your slip would show.

I simply wanted to thank you so much again. I am not sure the things that I might have gone through without the type of hints revealed by you regarding that situation.
