Fifties clothesSoft, feminine, romantic...these words best describe Fifties evening wear.

World War II brought mass production of clothing as part of the war effort. As this expanded into the Fifties, it meant that ordinary women had a chance to buy designer inspired evening wear for the first time.

50s clothing
1960s vinyl bootsTHE 60sNancy Sinatra helped to popularize
the "Mini"
(don't forget those "boots").
Prior to the British invasion in 1964 sixties fashion was a continuation of the late 1950s. But with the Beatles came a new and very different fashion influence not Paris or Milan but "swinging" London...Jimmy Hendrix
AND something else too!!
FRIDAY THE  29th!!! There will be a back to the 50s and 60s night at the Royal Suva Yacht Club....Dress Code to be from these decades. Time 7.30 - 12.00. The Band will be none other than the famous JOE CHANG and his group.....
Details now being worked out i.e. ticket costs, etc. So please save your pennies, as you can't miss this night. We are going to presale the tickets, and as they will be limited, let us know that you will be there with boots, bells, and hoops on!
Mr. Robin Storck, (sisters, Delores and Maureen R I P both went to St.Josephs) has been extremely helpful with ideas of how to host this event at the Yacht Club. He is a life member of the club and Vice Patron. Robin has suggested that should ANY alumnae wish to patronize the Yacht Club, an honorary membership will be given to those whose names we will officially submit to the Club secretary. So if you want to remember 'old times' or just want to have lunch or dinner, go down for a sunset drink with friends (something different from the bustling city!), please let us know and we will submit your names.
DO WE HEAR THE HEART BEATS picking up the pace,   love 38 (click to view)
hearing the song!!

The Way We Were:

BIG LOLOMA,
Blessings..
p.s. let us know if we can count you 'in' - we would like to know any-way!!
