The 1960's, "Fashion It Girls"~



The sixties were a fashion breakthrough, Let's just say "MINI" skirt - cool bright colors and bold prints, amazing hats and shoes. Fun hair-do's and makeup trends (fake eye lashes and frosted pink lips). Top designers like Pucci, Cardin, Givenchy, of course the start of the famous Vidal Sassoon and his "Bob" haircuts. The trendiest waif-like fashion models or "IT GIRLS' like Twiggy, Jean Shrimpton, Mary Quant. And the many famous movie star Icons, like Julie Christie, Jane Birkin, Audrey Hepburn and sex kitten Brigitte Bardot. There were countless style icons and artists from the 1960's.One of the most important and known as the most stylish women ever, our first lady Jackie Kennedy. The sixties were the decade of the young and stylish, those wanting to explore all things in music, art, fashion and politics. They were Revolutionary! From the Mods to the Hippie's and everyone in between. I think it was the most fashionable and chic decade ever. The 1960's, personification of everything cool and yes a little bit wacky. But fun and so charming and sophisticated..The Era of brilliant creations.
