I love how educational this is. Short of searching out all these catalogs and purchasing them myself - this is a really great way to resource the information. As we try and refine our looks - this is definitely a help. Thank you for posting. Not sure if we have all this info out there - but wouldn't it be great to have a thread for each decade where we share our catalog finds? (it's probably already out there - but I am sleepy this morning and cannot search apparently. )

Agghhh - How much do I want those shorts and halter combos!

PS - I love seeing the fabrics of the time. I often think about buying/making reproductions (70s,80s wear) and I wonder how authentic is the choice of fabric. This definitely helps in giving direction.

Oh man, I love the halter and pants combo! (And the embroidered pajamas too!) This is SO fun! Thanks again, texasgirl!
