EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Wigs, the New Line at Woolworths" takes us back to the 1960s, a time when wigs were not just a fashion statement but also served as a means of disguise. In those days, it was believed that only women who were bald or willing to spend a hefty £100 could own these luxurious hairpieces. However, this new line at Woolworths changed the game entirely. The image showcases an array of beautifully styled wigs displayed on mannequins in the store's window. These wigs were not just for everyday women; they attracted attention from duchesses, film stars, and models alike. The allure of transforming one's appearance with these fashionable accessories was irresistible. Beyond being mere fashion items, these wigs offered an opportunity for ladies seeking anonymity or perhaps desiring to adopt different personas temporarily. Whether it was for a special event or simply adding some excitement to their lives, women flocked to Woolworths in search of their perfect wig. As we gaze upon this photograph from Memory Lane Prints, we are reminded of how beauty and fashion trends have evolved over time. Wigs may no longer be exclusive status symbols today; however, they remain an integral part of our culture and continue to empower individuals by allowing them to express themselves through ever-changing hairstyles.
