Relive the days of greasers, hippies, John Travolta wannabes, and big haired rockers. Going retro with a costume can be a lot of fun. In addition, many of the costume items below can work well as couple costumes.

Retro Costumes of the 1950s

Slick back that hair guys and get ready to turn into a greaser. A white T-shirt tucked into a pair of jeans forms the principal part of the costume. Take a pack of cigarettes, (a deck of playing cards will do, too,) and roll it up in the sleeve. Toss on a leather jacket and it's party time!

For girls, a short sleeved, button up blouse or sweater can be worn with a traditional 1950s poodle skirt. Add some bobby socks and saddle shoes. Pull the hair back in a ponytail and don't forget the bright, red lipstick. Remember, girls can also dress as greasers.
