Sherri Rhodes, fun old days!
A lot and NOT for the better!
My wife Barbara dressed just the same from 1957-61 in Birmingham’s West End HS!
I remember my aunt’s cheerleader skirt from the 1950s, it was corduroy lined in satin, and very heavy!
Lol, for one thing we don’t call them costumes any more. Or at least they didn’t in 1973. My cheerleader costume was called a uniform.
In the 60’s, our Cheerleader and Majorette uniforms we’re modest. Today, the uniforms look like stripper outfits. Too many boobs and hineys showing, too many sexual explicit moved in the routines.
The skirts look to short for 50’s. The hairstyles caught my attention too!
And no obesity in the group, what has changed in the last 4 decades? Fast food , drive through s , no physical exercise and etc.
