Two major conflicts between the East and West during the late 1940s and early 1950s were the Berlin Blockade (1948-1949) and the Korean War (1950-1953). The Berlin Blockade was a Soviet attempt to cut off access to West Berlin, leading to a major airlift by Western allies to supply the city. The Korean War saw North Korea, backed by the Soviet Union and China, invade South Korea, which was supported by the United States and a coalition of United Nations forces, marking a significant military confrontation in the Cold War. These events highlighted the ideological and geopolitical tensions of the era.

Throughout the 1950s, young women's clothing was also influenced by the rock 'n' roll craze. Full skirts in bright colors become popular for dancing and skirts and pants were pinched in at the waist to emphasis the waist and bust. Young women also wore tight-fitting blouses tucked into slim-line calf-length trousers called 'Capri' pants or 'pedal pushers'. Short ankle socks, scarves tied around the neck and cropped cardigans were also popular. Movie star fashion influenced the clothing styles of ladies in the 1950s.
