The 1960's an Iconic Decade in Fashion

Today, the influence of 60's retro clothing can be seen everywhere. Designer fashion houses, high street outlets, and fashion conscious trendsetters all take inspiration from this decade. The 1960's was responsible for revolutions in music, film, and fashion, which may be why it is so well loved by vintage clothing aficionados.

The 1960's was an era of innovation and new thinking. Fashion was heavily influenced by the younger generations who were spending their wages on clothes and music. A school leaving age of fifteen meant that most teenagers over this age had full time jobs and an income to facilitate this spending.

Fashion followed three main phases but there were several popular sub genres too. In the early part of the 60's fashion followed similar trends to the late 50's such as the full skirt and Chanel suits. This was followed by the up rise of mini skirts, the Mary Quant and Vidal Sassoon looks. It was these that formed the 'definitive' 60's look and by the end of the decade, the hippy look was more prevalent with long hair, and kaftans.

The 60's style varies depending on your sex. For women, it was the almost Carnaby chic look with mini skirts, short angular haircuts, and knee length boots. For men, the 60's brought the mod look with smart tailored suits and skinny ties. These were the looks that defined the era, for many are still popular today, and still influence British fashion and style.

Even if you take a look at the popular movies from the 1960's, these styles can be seen. Music too influenced the fashion and vice versa. Many of the major bands during this decade helped set the trends, which again were largely bought by the younger generations.

The late 60's gave way to the hippy style, which was heavily influenced by the music culture. Long hair, beads, and kaftans were the order of the day and flared trousers and jeans were being worn by anyone who had a real eye for fashion. Not to everyone's taste. For some it was too scruffy therefore, a blend of this and mod style emerged where double-breasted suits with wider leg trousers bridged the gap.

60'S style keeps on coming back. You only have to look at the late 70's and early 80's, to see this when Two-Tone music and fashion became popular with 60's inspired monochrome fashion and a new take on the mod look.

Even if you look around your typical town or city, you are likely to see someone whose style has been influenced in some way by the fashion trends this decade had to offer. It could be 60's dresses; maybe it is someone sporting a 60's inspired skinny tie or polo shirt. Whatever it is, 60's style, and 60's vintage clothes will continue to re-emerge time after time after time.

Vidal $14.38 Vidal Sassoon's extraordinary life has taken him from an impoverished East End childhood to global fame. The father of modern hairdressing, his slick sharp cutting took the fashion world by storm and reinvented the hairdressers' art. Before Vidal Sassoon, a trip to the hairdressers meant a shampoo and set or a stiffly lacquered up-do that would last a week or more. After Vidal Sassoon, hair was sleek, smooth and very, very stylish. Along with his lifelong friend and partner in style, Mary Quant, who he first met in 1957 and who to this day sports a Sassoon-style geometric bob, he styled the 1960s. As memorable as the mini be it car or skirt he is one of the few people who can genuinely be described as iconic. His memoirs are as rich in anecdote as one might hope and full of surprising and often moving stories of his early life his time at the Spanish & Portuguese Jewish Orphanage in Maida Vale, fighting Fascists in London's East End and fighting in the army of the fledgling state of Israel in the late Forties. And then there's the extraordinary career, during which he cut the hair of everyone who was anyone, launched salons all over the world, founded the hairdressing school that still bears his name and became a global brand, with Vidal Sassoon products on all our bathroom shelves.
