Then and Now
Transcript: Floral prints were a huge hit in the 60s. Big and bright and colorful flowers were a pretty common sight during this period, often being seen on dresses and even skirts. The fashion was dominated by like dresses with daisy prints. Polka dots were also pretty popular during this period.Materials were also experimented with during this period to create cool clothing.You could see metal and plastic being used with wire to create different and unique clothing at the time. During the 1960s, you could also see that shimmer and glitter were being used heavily. Hippie culture was also catching on in the 60s. Someone could see the young wearing bell-bottom jeans and tie-die shirts. Color was the one thing that bound hippies all together.Long skirts in contrasting colors soon became really popular with women. Headscarves and headbands were used to complete the look. Men and women who belonged to this hippy culture also loved wearing a truck load of jewelry. This jewelry was as colorful as the rest of their outfit. Now on 2012 you still see alot of shimmer and glitter. You can spot it out easily on celeberties clothes and even in makeup.Flower patterns are still pretty popular, just not as much as they would have been then. Something you see now everyday is denim. We wear jeans and jean jackets to school a lot of the time now. Sequins are also quite popular. 1963 It hasn't really changed much. 18-9ft Prints and Patterns http://www.buzzle.com/articles/60s-fashion-clothing-sixties-style-clothes.html Brands Music 2012 The formal hat on JFK Cars Then and Now 1963-2012 http://www.thepeoplehistory.com/60scars.html All pictures are from Prezi.com Top 10 songs of 1963 http://vintageclothing.about.com/od/designerstolookfor/tp/1960s-Designers.htm Again another big one that has changed. Actually, the 60s was known as a great time for fashion. It was a period of amazing trend setting. This era saw some of the most popular styles being launched.Some of these styles are still in use today. The youth had a major say in fashions in this time. If it weren't for the experimental women in the 60s, women today may not be able to buy dress pants. It's odd though, what you would wear to be "in style" was different from what you wear 3 years later to have the same status.The standard formal of the day were tails and vests. When young girls in the early 60s wanted to dress up they might have worn a poodle skirt. If girls wanted to go out they might have worn saddle shoes. At the time clothing for kids were pretty simple:Shirts,slacks, tennis shoes, or black or brown lace shoes. Yup, fashion definitely changed. 1963-2012 Samples 1.

It had it's own brand of soul with a distant pop influence.Motown artists such as Stevie Wonder, Smokey Robinson, the Miracles, the Contours and the Four Tops all had hits in the early 1960s. It's hard to stick with one certain shoe look for the 60s. Conservative women stuck with the simple stiletto but slip on shoes with clunky heels were also common to wear with pants. Then again, there were boots to go along with the mini skirt. First they were loose plastic or plain leather but eventfully they morphed into clinging, treated clothing. Go-go boots were the big trend and came in every height imaginable.
