Welcome to the 60’s fashion. I want to give
you some information on what know and what I have learned.
In the 60's there were many new fashions erupting.
Besides women focusing on how they looked and becoming who they really wanted
to be, they were also fighting hard for their rights. After seeing many
generation after generation styles and tired of womanly stereotypes fashion
and individuality finally got their break.
The miniskirt and hot pants (extremely short shorts) were just two the famous
fads. They were also worn, with go-go
boots. The miniskirt at first started out as a mid thigh, mid knee skirt.
Mostly young teenage girls wore the miniskirt.
Another trend that became so popular by
being worn by someone that everyone looked up to was the shift dress. The
first lady, Mrs. Kennedy, wore this dress. The shift dress could by found in
manly duller colors like black, but also in bright colors like orange.

LY GROOVEY.
YOU COULD BOOGIE ALL NIGHT UNTILL YOU CAN’T BOOGIE ANY MORE.
The 1970s people would dress how ever they would
like. For some, people wore a wide range of styles. For others, people liked
to make fashion statements in the 1970s.
The 1970s were filled with many events that
impacted fashion. Feminism, Civil Rights, the Watergate scandal, and the
Vietnam War brought gritty reality to the forefront. These influences gave
designers new ammunition, and the public was eager for the latest fashion
wave.
Interesting boots-often teamed with hot
pants or short skirts. Boots might be shiny, textured, bejeweled, or covered
with psychedelic or floral designs, but they were not boring.
Skirts came in three lengths in the 1970s,
mini, midi, and maxi. The latter half of the decade’s fashions was impacted
by Rock Roll and Disco.
Males made their hair grow long until it reached
there shoulder. In the 70’s skirts were made in three different lengths mi,
midi, maxi.
