I was stuck wearing hand-me-downs from my two older brothers - t-shirts and shorts with various rips and holes. I had 5 older sisters but their clothes wore out before I could get into them.
Thankfully, we got to wear uniforms to school so I didn't stick out like a sore thumb.

My aunt opened a boutique in the 60's and I got to order stuff from the salesmen, that I and my friends wanted.. I had some pretty cool duds back then:)

and yes, we did sleep in enormous curlers. I have no idea why we did that.

5. Tropicana orange juice cans.. Heavy metal ones..not cardboard |

and industrial strength bobby pins to hold them in place..We'd wake up with dents in our cheeks, and headaches:)

Their costume people are awesome. Jackie particularly is usually wearing something I wore back then.
