Got my copy this week of the special one-off magazine called 50 Years of Everyday Fashion (by Yous magazine). I got mine from Morrison's but I reckon you could get it at any newsagent.
It's really interesting as it covers fahion from the 1940's right to the 1990's and isn't about haute couture (although it does talk about the influences during the day) but is full of anecdotes and reminiceses (sorry can't spell) and photos taken from women all over the UK on how they used to dress. One lady said she used to put sand in the toes of her 60's winklepicker shoes to stop them from curling up from wear! It's 131 pages and for £4.99, an absolulte bargoon!
