EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to 1960 as we take a glimpse into the world of Felixstowe College, an esteemed independent girls' school located in the picturesque town of Felixstowe, Suffolk. This photograph, taken from the pages of The Tatler and Bystander, showcases the school's distinctive uniform for its students. On the left, we see the sports attire, which consisted of grey flannel shorts paired with a white open-necked shirt and a heavy white V-necked sweater. These practical and comfortable clothes were perfect for the active girls of Felixstowe College, who engaged in various sports and physical activities. However, when the school day came to an end, the girls would change into more formal attire. As depicted on the right, they would wear a dress made of red or grey fine wool, cut on princess lines. This elegant design featured a half belt at the back, adding a touch of sophistication and style to the uniform. Felixstowe College, which was established in 1929 and closed in 1994, was renowned for its rigorous academic standards and commitment to providing a well-rounded education. The school's uniform, as seen in this photograph, was just one of the many traditions that helped shape the identity of its students. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing us with a window into the world of a bygone era and the daily life of a New English School Girl at Felixstowe College in 1960.
