1962 | NO STILETTOS PLEASE, WE'RE BRITISH

March 31st, 1962 | Stroud, Gloucestershire, England

The proverbial small prints at the bottom of the poster:

By Council Regulation: no Teddy Boy suits. Ladies please bring a change of shoes as stiletto heels are not allowed.

A bureaucrat telling youth what to wear: nonsense. No wonder the mini-skirt was less than two years away.
