Skirt ca. 1952 via The Costume Institute of the Metropolitan Museum of Art

I love poodle skirts. We would have sock-hops in my elementary school. They were the BIGGEST deal. I had a pink skirt with a white poodle made of cotton balls. I had a pair of black-and-white saddle shoes worn with white lacy socks. We would dance to all the bubble-gum pop music stuff, like the Twist and Mashed Potato and took our shoes off to ensure the “sock” part was fulfilled. 

And what do we do in college? Drunkenly grind on random guys with as much skin as possible showing. Elementary school FTW.

    When are poodle skirts going to come back in fashion? I own a green one and it’s dying to get worn.
