Th century fashion
Exercise 3. Now compose a similar dialogue and act it in pairs. Now read and translate the texts. ☺Pay attention to the new vocabulary below. Before the First World War fashions did not change very quickly. Men wore dark suits. They had short hair and moustaches were popular. Women wore long dresses and they had long hair. Under their dresses they wore stiff corsets. These gave women a very narrow waist, but they were very uncomfortable. ■ In the Roaring Twenties dresses and hair became much shorter. People saw women's knees for the first time! Corsets disappeared. A straight figure with no waist or bust was fashionable. For men, trousers with very wide legs became fashionable. They were called Oxford bags. ■ In the 1930s and ‘40s hair, dresses and coats became longer again. Men's fashion didn't change very much. Men wore a suit, a tie and usually a hat, too. Moustaches were less popular. ■ In the 1950s people were richer and teenagers spent a lot of money on clothes. For men this was the age of the teddy boy. Teddy boys wore long jackets in very bright colours - pink, orange or yellow -and very tight trousers called 'drainpipes'. For women jumpers and blouses with wide skirts and short socks were the fashion. Both men and women wore 'winklepicker' shoes with long pointed toes. The women's shoes had high stiletto heels. ■ The 1960s saw a revolution in clothes. Everything changed. This was the time of the mini-skirt and long boots. For the first time in the twentieth century men had long hair -the famous Beatle haircut. ■ In the late 1960s and the early ‘70s the hippy 'flower power' style was in. Women wore loose maxi-skirts. Men wore jeans and brightly coloured shirts or T-shirts. Clothes were very colourful. Very long hair was fashionable for men and women, and beards became more common (but only for men). ■ The ‘80s brought teenagers with punk hairstyles in red, blue, purple and green, and brightly coloured makeup.
