Fashion inspo: Dreamgirls (2006) Beyoncé’s character Dena Jones was the star but all characters shine fashion wise.

The 60’s were such a lovely time for style because of the type of pride women took in their appearance
Being put together was the definition of femininity, and your sex appeal came from how well your presented yourself.

Sets were important. Wearing clothing with full intent behind the outfit was normal back then.
Even to get ready, it was done intently. Robes, vanities, makeup and hair. The essence of glamour was heavy in the air during these times. Men knew and understood a woman’s value by how long she took to be ready.

Being well off was understood if you wanted a woman of value
Women embraced being soft and easy going beings. Makeup was used to enhance features, not overpower.
Back in the days, it seems a woman’s femininity was well nourished. Not by society, but by themselves. It seemed to be a well understood culture amongst women that knew they wanted more. We were blessed with beauty, nurture it, sharpen your wit, get what you deserve ✨
