The 60's are known as one of the most fashion conscious decades in history and has a noticeable influence on today's fashion.
The 60's fashion was full of change, unlike the previous decades, the 60's was all about casual, bright colours and bold prints. It embraced stylish hair and quirky make-up. Extreme hemline's, psychedelic prints and low heels were all a massive statement in the 60's.
The 60's saw a rise in style icons from Jackie Kennedy with her classy, sophisticated yet fashionable look, to twiggy with her pixie looks and shift dresses. Audrey Hepburn was also a big influence on fashion in Hollywood after one of the 60's most popular films, 'Breakfast at Tiffany's'.
The 60's had many staple items such as the baby-doll dresses, hot pants, culottes and tie-dye. Also the introduction of the miniskirt. The phenomenon still exists today.
Overall the 60's was one massive leap for fashion.
