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.
