With the cold weather finally letting up and commencement
celebrations underway, it’s time to consider what you should be wearing if you
want to be fashionable this summer. The May 29, 1955, issue of The Hornet suggests a “dainty
off-the-shoulders blouse with the pin pleated skirt.” For colors, consider the
following: “blue sky, sun white, sandalwood red, avocado, sun pink, butterpale,
shrimp, pinkviolet, tangerine, shell p[i]nk, goldenrod, and mauve.”
Our collection of The
Hornet extends from 1950 to the present. You can find many recurring
columns like this one which offer interesting glimpses into student life back
in the day, and you might even walk away from them with a better fashion sense.
