“Bobby sox (also known as bobby socks or ankle socks) are commonly equated with an iconic teenage girl from the 1950s who wears a poodle skirt and saddle shoes’’(Schrum). 

Trend 
“Female tennis players first adopted a "stockingless mode," wearing only socks. Despite negative media attention, the practice of wearing ankle socks spread. It was especially popular on college campuses, and high school students soon adopted the trend.” (Schrum)

Outfits 
“They wore ankle socks and flat shoes with their flat skirts. The word “bobby” in “bobby-soxer” comes from the phrase to bob meaning to cut short, because their socks were short” (Black)
("Teenage Girls Wearing Bobby Sox (1953).")
