Same! Just so elegant and classy. A shame we have devolved so quickly since then. I wish I could have experienced classy times.

“. I wish I could have experienced classy time”

The fifties were my prime years and yes,we did dress up for almost anything.

The biggest thing for me though is the common courtesy that was shown to everyone,including a respect for women.I was only about 18 when the man downstairs tipped his hat to me when we ran into each other.I felt as if I had finally arrived :-).

The decade takes a bad rap that is not deserved. The 60s ruined everything and coarsened society.
