Students from Parramatta Central Home Science High School in Sydney model dresses they have made. The designs are inspired by French fashion.
The voice-over narration reflects a narrow view of the expected roles for Australian women in the 1950s, with comments that seem bizarre by today's standards.
This newsreel segment 'Home Science: Schoolgirls Model Frocks They Make' comes from Cinesound Review No. 1131.
