While providing news and current affairs reporting for many decades, the Daily Mail provided guidance and style commentary on fashion, etiquette and entertainment to its readers, well before the birth of glossy women’s magazines. In this entertaining book some of the most interesting features from the women’s pages are reproduced to give a first hand understanding of what was expected from the leading ladies of the fifties. Read articles such as "Looking Good in Glasses," "When a Husband Goes Gift-Buying," "Putting a Bright Face on Autumn," and "Why Wear Tweeds at a Theatre?"
