Fashions of a Decade: The 1960s
Product Description
“Fashions of a Decade: The 1960s” delves into the free-spirited clothing trends of this time period, exploring history from a social and cultural angle. From the far-out fads of beatniks and hippies, popularized by Bob Dylan, to rock star rebels, epitomized by Mick Jagger, to boyish fashion models, captured by the British waif, Twiggy, this revised, full-color volume brings the peace-loving threads of the ’60s back to life in good style.

I thought this book was well written, even if it is supposedly for kids. It was full of information, pictures, and interesting trivia. As a free-lance writer and researcher of the Twenties, it’s a good book to have in one’s personal library!

I found this book to be well writen and researched. The illustrations were great, and very inspiring. I can’t wait to try and sew some of these fashions myself. The historical aspects of the Fashions of the 1940s was very informative.

I borrowed this book along with the other volumes (1940 to 1970 )from my library. This was exactly what I need for my assignment of different body types and the power of non verbal communication. It was very interesting and would recommend buying. This book was outstanding!
