    How did the women dress when you was an infant?

    This is how women used to look when I was an infant, perhaps the first ever fashion trend I can remember noticing and then disappearing...

    That thick blue eyeshadow and heavy make up. I remember noticing that first, then I remember not seeing it anymore, but this style, was how some women used to dress back when I was an infant.
    That's how old I am, I remember women walking around dressed like this when I was small.

    Post a picture of how women used to dress when you was an infant.

    When I was young child I remember my older teenage sister and her friends wearing the popular 1950s full skirt with "can cans" [that's what they called their petticoats.]

    How did women look when you were an infant?, not "was" an infant.

    Thank you, but that still doesn't answer the question.

    The only thing I saw and cared about that was female when I was an infant was the breast.

    As an aside, did you know that infants cannot focus their eyes very well and therefore it is unlikely they could tell much difference among many of the other humans they saw, including different females? However, infants do tend to try to grab at my mustache, so they somehow have an ability to see that as different from other faces. So it depends I guess on the relative age of the infant and how many females they encounter. The more females encountered, the more likely the observer at any age would be able to identify differences, no?

    I call people infants until the age of 5 or 6. (So to me, a 6 year old is an infant).
    I don't know how old I was exactly, but I do remember seeing young ladies wearing that fashion with the blue makeup over the eyes like that.

    This would be out in the general public shopping with my family I noticed this fashion, no one at home dressed like that.

    Do you remember the blue make up over the eyes that followed?
    I think 80's had like pink or yellow makeup right, as far as eye shadow colours go (I'm too young to remember that one), but I remember suddenly blue or greenish blue became a thing, for girls to wear over their eyes.
    That's the first one I noticed.
