Swinging Sixties

Fashion in the 1960's shifted rapidly from polished, formal elegance to youthful mod geometry and finally to the free -spirited bohemian hippie counterculture.  The early sixties began with fashion heavily influenced by public figures like Jackie Kennedy.  Women wore pillbox hats, bouffant hairstyles, tailored skirt suits, a-line skirts, and structured sheath dresses.  In the mid-1960's a Mod youth culture took over.  London became a global capital of fashion and hemlines rose dramatically.  Welcome in the mini-skirts, color blocked shift dresses, geometric art prints, PVC space-age boots, and iconic crop cuts popularized by Twiggy.  Coming soon - Bbeauty's take on 1960's fashion for 18" dolls.
