About Poodle Skirts
A staple of teenage girl fashion in the 1950s, poodle skirts were the preferred garment of choice for bobby-sockers from the juke box dance floors to the malt-shop counter. In basic black or bright shades of pink, red, or even blue and yellow, these A-line skirts hit at mid-calf, the name of these skirts was derived from the decorative poodle in felt or faux fur fabric that adorned its hemline. Decorated with a stitched, silver, or rhinestone "chain" extending from the skirt's waistline to the black or white poodle's "collar" on the skirt.
Dressing up with a Poodle Skirt
Dust off those saddle shoes and slip on some cute bobby socks and get ready to twist the night away in a sweet n' sassy poodle skirt! In a variety of colors and sizes to fit ladies and little girls, go back to the future and bring and old favorite into the 21st Century. Pair it up with a cute cardigan, or even a tight cap-sleeved cashmere sweater with a coordinating chiffon scarf around your neck for a costume worthy of a sock hoppin' hottie. For a modern "twist," there's even a goth poodle skirt ensemble!
