poodle skirts

Sock-hop attire

Poodle skirts are wide, swinging skirts popular in the 1950s, typically featuring an appliqué of a poodle or other design near the hem.

They're worn as vintage fashion or period costumes, especially for sock hops and 1950s-themed events: She wore a pink poodle skirt to the Halloween party.
