I love this photo. The wry smile from the one on the right is charming.

Probably have their hair in rollers ready to get ready for the dance that night.

I used to see older girls/young women coming home from work on a Friday and an hour later they’d be all dressed up ready to go out on the town

My Mum worked in a worsted spinning mill in West Yorkshire. She didn't enjoy it. But that's a good photo and it's got me thinking about chips wrapped in newspaper with loads of salt and vinegar. With some scraps on top.

Working class women have always presented themselves (without shame) like this.
Think Hilda Ogden, right through to the magnificent 'Scouse Prinnys'
