Fifty-plus years of pop fashion


In the late 1950s and well into the 1960s, Johnny O'Keefe ruled the world of rock in Australia the way Jerry Lee Lewis did in the United States.
Two examples of his stage wear (lovingly hand-made by his mother!) are preserved in the Museum of Sydney.

This modest little dress reminded me of what the high school cheerleaders wore in the mid '60s, except this garment is made out of Neoprene.
