Fashion from the 60s
In the early 1960s fashion was very bi-polar in the sense that it couldn't make up its mind, trends were all over the places and nothing stuck around for too long. There were still a lot of the 1950s trends going on and people weren't really changing that because they liked the more classic in style and design. However the late 60s were the complete opposite of the beginning with people venturing out and wearing bright colours and tie-dye shirts and woman showed more skin than ever by wearing the shortest of skirts and men wore tunics and capes.

The 1960s were best known for being the decade of experimentation in fashion the trends didn't just happen they were developed with inspiration and then put out into the fashion world for everyone else to wear. Contemporary architecture and sculpture were the biggest of inspirations for fashion designers in the 60s. Inspiration came from everywhere with people even venturing back to the 20s and 30s with blouses making a come back paired with short skirts and fitting hats.

Skirts obviously got shorter in the 1960s as women weren't afraid to show off a little skin. This trend changed the fashion for the better it gave fashion that sense of danger and daring to take a risk then it comes to fashion. The short skirts were typically worn with low-heeled shoes so that there was more attention drawn on the legs. Culottes, divided skirts and trim trouser skirts were introduced for travel as they were seen as comfy attire that could be worn as street wear or just for an evenings at home. For the more dressy attire beads and sequin embroidered evening clothes was the choice of clothing to wear for formal events or nights out. As well as the long dresses of sequins or crystal beads that was worn as elegant and classic attire.

Darker colours were the colour trend in fashion during the 1960s and they were the rage. People wore all of the darkest of colours on the spectrum such as purple, red and green and colours of similar shade such as grape, plum, wine red and olive green. These colours were worn in contrast with a very popular brighter colour that made its way to the 60s which was neon bright pink, this was the statement colour people wore is in the 1960s.
