Ready to Wear

BBC Two
on BBC Two England

Dress for Success. The last programme in the series looks at the daily dilemma women face when dressing for work. It charts the change in attitudes towards acceptable work wear, beginning in the 1950s when cumbersome underwear restricted women's fashion choices. The humble pair of tights changed all this and paved the way for short skirts in the 1970s and the padded shoulders of the 1980s.
