The 1950s twist refers to a popular dance style that emerged during the decade, characterized by its energetic and spontaneous movements, particularly the twisting of the hips and torso. It was closely associated with rock and roll music, especially songs like "The Twist" by Chubby Checker, which helped popularize the dance. The twist became a cultural phenomenon, transcending age groups and influencing music, fashion, and social interactions of the time. It marked a shift in social norms, encouraging more liberated expressions of dance and youth culture.
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. Screen goddesses like Marilyn Monroe and Grace Kelly inspired tiny waistlines and full skirts and busts. Slim pencil-line skirts were also popular. Stiletto-heeled shoes emerged in the early 1950s and shoes could be bought in a variety of colours to match any outfit.
