About Poodle Skirts

A staple of teenage girl fashion in the 1950s, poodle skirts were the preferred garment of choice for bobby-sockers from the juke box dance floors to the malt-shop counter. In basic black or bright shades of pink, red, or even blue and yellow, these A-line skirts hit at mid-calf, the name of these skirts was derived from the decorative poodle in felt or faux fur fabric that adorned its hemline. Decorated with a stitched, silver, or rhinestone "chain" extending from the skirt's waistline to the black or white poodle's "collar" on the skirt.
