1950's Wedding Couple Hairstyles

This is a perfect vintage photo of the bride and groom in the back seat of their get away car.

1950s bride and groom

The bride has very typical 50's style hair with super short bangs. She has a pixie cut that is slightly wavy with the sides being ear length and the back being a bit longer to the collar. She is wearing it down with an ornate crown sitting on top of her head. The veil is attached to the back of it. Her dress has a scalloped collar in white lace and she has a simple pearl necklace. The young and handsome groom has his arm around his love and a mischievous grin on his face. He has tame version of a pompadour with the top being slicked up with some height. The sides are cut short for a clean cut appearance. These two look very young and are probably still in their teens. You can see a vintage car out of the back window. These two are off to the honeymoon.

Adam Lambert Pompadour

Adam is sporting a slicked up pompadour at "Britney: Pieces of Me" Grand Opening at Planet Hollywood Las Vegas.

Adam Lambert

The sides are shaved close while the top is left longer and pushed up for height which is vintage 1950's hair fashion for men. Elvis Presley made it popular. Pomade helps to set the strands up in place and keep them there. He adds a bit of interest with an asymmetrical look as he has some tufts slicking up on one side. The bang area has a silvery sheen in the lights. His facial hair is cut close and adds character.

Women of the 1950's Enjoying Country Life

These two ladies are looking rather glam for their era wearing bathing suits and cat eye sunglasses while they stand at the river's edge fishing.

1950's Bathing Beauties

This was a common activity on a hot summer day in rural America and what better way to catch some rays than to wear the good old swimsuit. Back then ladies covered up quite a bit more than they do today and it was considered sexy. Their one piece suits come up quite high in the back and the legs are cut straight across which helped to keep things in place. The material looks rather thick almost like a girdle. Back then most women wore girdles with dresses even if they were thin. It was just the fashion. It was considered unsightly to have loose looking skin/tissue.

1950's Double Wedding Photograph

This is quite the unique scene here in 1950 showing what looks to be a double wedding or possibly a renewal of wedding vows.

20140131-120443.jpg

We have two couples standing at the center dressed in long gowns that are not white and holding big bouquets of flowers. The women are next to each other and the men are at their sides and they are surrounded by a large party of ladies also holding flowers. This is staged like a wedding photo with two rows of folks and some are standing in the rear while those in the front are sitting. Their ages vary from about 20's to 50's. The gals are sporting typical hairdos of this decade with most being short and curled. Early in the 50's the styles were still usually following the trends from the 1940's which showcased Victory Rolls and cascading curls.
