Retro Women captures the transformative decades from the 1950s to the 1970s.

A tribute and celebration of women, from the elegance and grace of the 1950s housewife with delightful charms and elegant fashion styles, to questioning their independence in the 1960s, to breaking down barriers in the 1970s.

In this book, it looks back through those transformative decades and how women during each era changed and evolved with more self-expression, questioning their choices against the traditions of society and what was expected of women and their role in the home, the workplace, and relationships, to embrace their freedom.

In each era, there are iconic retro women who influenced women all over the world, including fashion trends and giving women a voice in society. Then there were the trailblazers, empowered women fighting for women’s rights to work and have equal rights as men, for women to have bank accounts, and get further education, vote in elections, and take on more senior roles in the workplace.

Retro Women is a journey through these decades showcasing how women forged their paths with confidence and grace for future generations.
