 Football World Cup 1950 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Italy was of particular interest: the Italians were the long-standing defending champions (winners in 1938, the last World Cup prior to 1950), but the country was in ruins at the end of World War II, and at first there was little to no interest from the country in participating.
The 1950 Football World Cup was the only World Cup ever held which was not decided by a knockout final (although the last match of the tournament did end up determining the overall winner, and this match, also known as Maracanazo, is usually referred to as if it had been a final).
Brazil and Germany had been the leading bidders to host the cancelled 1942 World Cup; since both the 1934 and 1938 tournaments had been held in Europe, football historians generally agree that the 1942 event would most likely have been awarded to a South American host country.

 1950 Fashion
The end of 1949 had found fashion apparently headed for a large-scale revival of the 1920s, but this rather extreme trend modified itself greatly.

There was also a trend toward longer hair; the short crop began to give way to more feminine coiffures, and a few chignons (knots of hair at the nape of the neck) were seen.
