The definitive history of the fashion revolutions of the 1960s, richly illustrated with contemporary imagery In the 1960s, fashion changed dramatically. At the end of the 1950s, Yves Saint Laurent was starting to look for new ways to define the female form; by the 1970s, styles, markets, materials, demographics, inspirations, and the very definition of fashion had been utterly transformed. Richly illustrated with contemporary imagery, including fashion shots, advertising, and magazine features, this is an essential sourcebook. The story begins with the new internationalism that changed the fashion landscape as New York, San Francisco, Florence, London, Madrid, Rome, and Hong Kong challenged the dominance of Paris haute couture. The younger generation’s demand for informal but stylish clothes led to an explosion of fast-moving, ready-to-wear styles and a new boutique culture. Diana Vreeland’s coinage for this unprecedented shift in fashion was “Youthquake.” The concept of “less is more” had its ultimate expression in the miniskirt: for the first time in history the hemline traveled far above the knee. An era of self-conscious modernity was inspired by a space-age future that embraced new looks and materials, while counterculture styles—Mexican sandals and sarapes, hand-crafted jewelry, Indian robes—emphasized the natural over the artificial.

Sixties Fashion by Hildegard Ringena,Kunstbibliothek (Berlin, Germany) Pdf
The revolutionary era of the 1960s saw many societal changes, which left an unmistakable mark on fashion. London took over Paris' position as the trend-setting capital, mini skirts and jeans were being worn by teenagers all over the world, pantsuits and oriental style evening wear even found their way into haute couture. The Germans travelled en masse to Italy for the first time and beach and bathing wear was more revealing and casual than ever before. The international media propagated this change with unprecedented fashion photography and illustration. This fashion revolution is uniquely represented here by the Sammlung Modebild - Lipperheidsche Kostümbibliothek. This book shows the most important fashion trends of the decade, divided into 12 thematic sections. English and German text.
Perhaps more so than any other decade, the sixties had the broadest impact on the twentieth-century Western world. Across society, culture and the arts, youth voices rose to prominence and had a significant influence on new trends. Mature polished elegance was replaced by young liveliness as the fashionable ideal. Although only the most daring young followers of fashion wore the tiny miniskirts and borderline-unwearable plastic and metal outfits publicised in the press, stylish and smart fashion was increasingly available to all, with an emphasis on self-expression. New style icons such as Twiggy combined girl-next-door looks with trendy, aspirational and accessible outfits, and popular culture heavily influenced mainstream fashion. This beautifully illustrated book offers a concise guide to changing styles across the decade.

Fabulous Fashions of the 1960s by Felicia Lowenstein Niven Pdf
"Discusses the fashions of the 1960s, including women's and men's clothing and hairstyles, accessories, trends and fads, and world events that influenced the fashion"--Provided by publisher
The miniskirt, the trouser suit (pantsuit), the bob hairstyle, eye makeup, the supermodel – so many fashion concepts we take for granted today owe their existence to the Sixties. It was an era when fashion advanced side-by-side with music and movies, breaking new ground as the world threw off the drab grayness of post-war life and put its gladrags on. Hemlines weren’t the only thing that was rising as the decade progressed. The interest of the mass media was piqued, and when Time magazine pinpointed the epicenter of the fashion revolution as Swinging London, all roads led to Carnaby Street. London-based models like The Shrimp, Twiggy, and Veruschka became overnight stars, blazing a trail for the supermodels of today and projecting the fashions of the time. Photographers and designers were now celebrities too, names like David Bailey, Patrick Lichfield, Mary Quant, and Ossie Clark making headlines as big as politicians and pop stars. This publication records the Sixties fashion revolution in words and most importantly, pictures, documenting the decade when haute couture and the high street met and married. What we wear and how we wear it has never been the same since.

Film, Fashion, and the 1960s by Eugenia Paulicelli,Drake Stutesman,Louise Wallenberg Pdf
A fascinating look at one of the most experimental, volatile, and influential decades, Film, Fashion, and the 1960s, examines the numerous ways in which film and fashion intersected and affected identity expression during the era. From A Hard Day's Night to Breakfast at Tiffany's, from the works of Ingmar Bergman to Blake Edwards, the groundbreaking cinema of the 1960s often used fashion as the ultimate expression for urbanity, youth, and political (un)awareness. Crumbling hierarchies brought together previously separate cultural domains, and these blurred boundaries could be seen in unisex fashions and roles played out on the silver screen. As this volume amply demonstrates, fashion in films from Italy, France, England, Sweden, India, and the United States helped portray the rapidly changing faces of this cultural avant-gardism. This blending of fashion and film ultimately created a new aesthetic that continues to influence the fashion and media of today.
Tells the story of the revolutionary--and voluptuary--fashions that accompanied, expressed, and broadcast the social, political, and cultural revolt of a turbulent decade.
The 1960s were an age of fashion innovation for women. The early 1960s gave birth to drainpipe jeans and capri pants, which were worn by Audrey Hepburn. The casual dress became more unisex and often consisted of plaid button-down shirts worn with slim blue jeans, comfortable slacks, or skirts. This book is an essential guide to sixties fashion covering everything from trends to vintage clothing. This well-researched book will help you discover what sixties clothes are and how to wear them your way. The author made this book especially for sixties fashion fans and vintage collectors alike.
Fellini: The Sixties (Turner Classic Movies) by Manoah Bowman Pdf
Style. Beauty. Passion. Vision. These are just a few of the words often used to describe the films of the single most celebrated director in Italy, and one of the most important directors the world has ever known—Federico Fellini. Fifty years since their initial releases, his films of the 1960’s still inspire, shock and delight. More than just encapsulating the 1960’s, these films also helped define the style of the decade. With a staggering twelve Academy Award nominations between his four feature films during this period, Fellini reached the heights of fame, film artistry, and worldwide prominence. Studied, analyzed and re-released over the years, these films continue to amaze each new generation that discovers them. Their impeccable style makes them timeless. Their images make them unforgettable. Their passion brings them to life. And their singular vision makes them unique in all of cinema. Fellini: The Sixties is a stunning photographic journey through the director’s most iconic classics: La Dolce Vita, 8½, Juliet of the Spirits, and Fellini Satyricon.
