Re: [h-cost] 70's prom dresses
Where I went to skool, it was Lee jeans, a Miller shirt (both ironed as it was a special occasion) and platform shoes with turn-up toes. The boys wore pretty much the same with the addition of a leather jacket or waist-length double- breasted zip-up lumber jacket that could be loaned to a girl if it looked like they might get lucky -- not that anyone knew what lucky actually was, -C.

Yearbooks might, or might not, do any good. When the girls' yearbook photos were taken at my high school, they merely draped our busts with a piece of velvet; we did not wear our prom gowns or anything like that. -- Cathy Raymond ca...@thyrsus.com Beware how you take away hope from another human being. --Oliver Wendell Holmes ___ h-costume mailing list h-costume@mail.indra.com http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
Re: [h-cost] 70's prom dresses
There are usually photos of the events through the year, which includes the proms and any other dances. My yearbook would definitely work as a source like that. The formal portraits for seniors did have the draped velvet, but there were plenty of other photos in the book. -Carol On Oct 5, 2011, at 6:49 PM, Catherine Olanich Raymond wrote: Yearbooks might, or might not, do any good.
