Pink Sock Rectum

Pink Sock Rectum

Neutrals and drab colors like khaki and brown, meanwhile, are also great alternatives if you don't want the reference to be too overt. The only problem with drab colors is that you run the risk of looking, well, drab. John Galliano dealt with this by throwing in a few shocks of color into the mix, like schoolgirl pink socks stuffed into Mary Janes.

The majority of people dressed in the conventional way of the time, a neat look with a jacket or blazer, trousers, thin straight tie and possibly suede shoes for younger men, however another youth fashion stream called 'Teddy boys' is always associated with the fifties, named after the Edwardian (Ted) style jackets that they wore. Typically teddy boys dressed in drainpipe trousers, beetle crusher shoes with fluorescent pink socks and DA haircuts. This 'duck tail' hair style consisted of greased long hair, moulded up to a quiff at the front and the side combed back to look like the back end of a duck. Their reputation was that of young men out looking for a fight with rumours of flick knives. This was following riots of a mainly teddy boy teenage audience in London cinemas after viewing the US film 'Blackboard Jungle'.
