Rockabilly Fashion

Rockabilly is the fashion that goes with 1950s rock 'n' roll: swing dresses with a full skirt and a petticoat underneath, circle skirts, high waisted jeans with turn-ups, worn with short cardigans and tie neck blouses. Polka dots, cherries, checks and strong colours such as red, navy and black are typical. Our rockabilly clothing is newly made by Hearts & Roses, Banned Retro, Femkit and Weekend Doll, with a size chart on every product page. Where the style comes from and what the scene looks like today is covered in our journal: What is rockabilly?

A rockabilly outfit is all about the waist: the skirt or dress sits high and swings wide, while the top is short and close fitting. For the dance floor a petticoat goes under the dress, for everyday wear the skirt is enough on its own. A bandana, red lips and flat shoes or wedges complete it. If you prefer something less playful, go for the turn-up jeans and a striped top.

If you are looking for something specific: rockabilly dresses and swing dresses, circle skirts, jeans and cardigans. Everything from the decade is under 1950s fashion, and the calmer counterpart is the dandy look. If you would rather try things on, you can visit our shop in Windsbach by appointment.
