message: There's no information on men's fashion here... I don't have any to provide, myself, but it would be a great addition!  brain (talk) 15:37, 23 January 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, well the article needs a lot of major work on it. A chunk of text was removed a while back, and it's very untidy as it now stands. I believe a bunch of kids edited it as part of a school assignment.--Jeanne Boleyn (talk) 17:54, 23 January 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Men's fashion 

message: I am going to see if I can clean up this article - I have the references now - but we desperately need PD images that I can't locate.  Any help would be appreciated:
* A typical Dior New Look suit, or retail knock-off of one.
* Teddy boys, England, pre-1960.
* Teenage girl in ponytails, pedal pushers, rolled-up jeans with men's white dress shirts, saddle shoes and bobby socks, any combination of those things.
* Teenage girl in a sweater and pencil skirt.
* Teenage boy in tee shirt and leather jacket.
* Commons has some Dior gowns but there are no dates on them - if anyone can track the dates for those down, that would be great. Got 'em.
* A Balenciaga suit with an unfitted (A-line) back.
Thanks, all! - PKM (talk) 01:07, 20 January 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: BTW, for historical reference, the "chunk of text" that was removed was merged from 1950s and turns out to have been serious  copyvio from this source; I am not sure when it was removed.  But, we begin again. - PKM (talk) 02:48, 20 January 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Okay, here's a complete restructure.  It still needs a women's sportswear section, more on underwear (petticoats!), formal wear and outerwear. - PKM (talk) 03:55, 22 January 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Added Sportswear and more pictures. - PKM (talk) 20:36, 22 January 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: A 1950s image of Elvis needs to be in the article.--Jeanne Boleyn (talk) 08:22, 23 January 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: The only one we've got is in costume from Jailhouse Rock, but I suppose it's better than nothing. - PKM (talk) 23:11, 23 January 2011 (UTC)

text: And BTW that copyvio comment may be an error This book was published after the Wikipedia article on the History of fashion design.  - PKM (talk) 23:11, 23 January 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Added image of Elvis. - PKM (talk) 23:16, 23 January 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: It looks great and adds a lot to the article as he was a 50s icon.--Jeanne Boleyn (talk) 07:17, 24 January 2011 (UTC)

message: This article only mentions western/european/usa-ian/whatever clothing. There's NO mention of other countries about this. It's a catastrophe really, how can wikipedia take pride in being objective and checking sources if they forgot the majority of the world? --83.250.240.27 (talk) 21:24, 30 August 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: Article has since been moved to "1945–60 in Western fashion" from Talk:1945–60 in fashion, though we still have section links to 1945–60 in Western fashion#The beginnings of Eastern fashion Banak (talk) 10:57, 10 January 2017 (UTC)

message: When someone has a moment, I believe it would be worth researching and adding in information about african-american fashion within 1945-1960. At the moment the only mention of such is as follows
"During and after the war, oversized zoot suits were worn by rebellious teenagers, hep cats, and gang members, especially African-Americans, Italian-Americans, Cholos a.k.a. pachucos, and Chicanos" 
There is a whole culture here worth expanding on for western fashion in this time period, and it would be a loss to only include a mention of such next to gang members and rebellious teenagers. This is something I'll also work on finding more information on when I have time, but if there is someone with more time or knowhow on this subject, this is some room for improvement.
