I remember those Villlager shirtwaists. No one was wearing them in CA
where I went to high school but I recall that when I went on to college
there were girls in my rooming house from the east coast who were all
wearing Villager style clothes, along with penny loafers, which no one in
CA wore either. It was the preppy look which, I don't think, ever made
its way to the west coast.

I was born in '62, so most of what y'all are discussing is *ancient* history
<gg> to me, but I do remember when I was in elementary school, we went to
the high school one evening for a "carnival" and I saw those glamorous high
school girls wearing gauze shirts and bell bottom jeans with colorful
inserts. My mom made most of my clothing and I begged her for some of those
jeans!
I'm not familiar with "villager shirtwaist" and google didn't come up with
much - is this similar to a "camp shirt" ? - like the ones worn by Haley
Mills in Disney's Parent Trap movie.
