super thin waists & elongated bodies are distorted?? hmm i must be distorted then, because that's what my body looks like!! XD on another note, i find it's interesting how sizing has changed .. a size 14 was once a 32 bust/35 hip .. what is that now, a size 3/5? :)

Having lived through the fashion flub called the 80's I'm disgusted that this fashion has even resurfaced.
Even if ironically.  The only good thing was that post-punk 50's rehash.
Think: Exene Cervenka, Cyndi Lauper & Brian Selzer—- I mean, who doesn't look good in a pair of winkle pickers?

I'm more fascinated by the fact that every drawing is distorted. Why can't we just draw women how they look? Why the super thin waist or elongated bodies? Strange.

More accurately titled, Prom Dress Patterns..

Get me some from the 1950's please…oh and some 1970's…but mostly just for fun B)

What about the super slutty dresses of the 2000s???

The best dresses are ones from the 1950s :D

An improvement on what they're like now I have to say.

I'm sure it's totally a coincidence that the movie “Prom” is coming out soon and that this made it to the front page. Remember when user submitted content used to get noticed on here?

The real question is: how do they look in a pile on the floor?

Get me a prom dress from the 40's please!

The dresses in 6 are pretty much my dream ones - why can't people still make them like that?
