In the 50's, clothing was very conservative. Both boys and girls dressed very, very neatly. The popular hairstyle today for women and girls today, the unfettered, messy wave would have seemed extremely unruly to them.

Boys wore ironed slacks, which today would be considered dress pants. Ironed sweaters with an oxford shirt underneath completed this look. Their hair was neatly combed and had a deep part. Flat-top crewcuts were also popular for boys,

Girls wore round, full-skirted, long skirts such as the poodle skirt, shirts with tight bodices, and thin bobby socks with saddle shoes. These saddle shoes were usually tan and brown, not the white and black. Scarves were also popular. Girls from the first to sixth grade wore dresses which were usually plain or plain. On Sundays, girls sometimes wore flowered dresses. High, neat ponytails were popular, as was NEAT curled, permed hair. Girls hair was usually very sculpted.

Why do teacher not wear a school uniform?

Teachers don't have to wear school uniform because the school does not have that policy. Though they do have the policies that students in that school do have to. Casual days is a kind of treat for students that are in a school that have the policy that children have to wear the school uniform. What I say is "Why cant teachers wear uniform as well as students?" So if you are a school student wondering why than let me tell you, one day teachers will and one day we will wear casual clothes.
