Short History:
“In the 1950s, costume jewelry enjoyed a global boom in popularity. Jewelry designs were clean, colorful, ornate, and perfectly coordinated with an outfit.
Costume jewelry flourished with the increased spending power that this decade yielded. Consequently, 1950s costume jewelry perfectly facilitated the trend for women to look well groomed.
The vogue for glittering, sparkling jewels has never faded. However, in the 1950s, this trend reached new heights. During WWII, rhinestones were difficult to obtain due to metal shortages. By the 1950s, rhinestones were once again readily available and highly desirable. They decorated clothing, hats, handbags, and provided evening dresses with the perfect touch of sparkle. Evening jewelry could be a simple single or double strand rhinestone necklace, or a more dramatic bib rhinestone necklace for gowns with plunging necklines. Many women choose to only wear large rhinestone earrings or a brooch with their cocktail attire.”
