Honestly, I think we worry a little much about the proper "vintage" thing to do sometimes rather than what's comfortable or practical. For example, the ladies had a thread where they were discussing whether to wear stockings in summer. As one pointed out, we have a slight advantage in that we can pick and choose from many looks now. As such, a skirt/dress from the 1930s or 1940s would look fine without them, and no one would say you are being "indecent" these days.reetpleat said:I suppose it is a hold over from the day when men wore one piece underwear all the time so in summer they would wear an abbreviated version, then at some point it continued on as just a matter of habit. I still wear them sometimes because it seems like the right vintage thing to do, but as my pants have gotten a little snugger, they are the first thing to go. I can't stand to have all those layers in there.
