History of 1960s Fashion and Textiles
The 1960s was a decade of sweeping change throughout the fashion world generating ideas and images which still appear modern today.
Whereas fashion had previously been aimed at a wealthy, mature elite, the tastes and preferences of young people now became important.
At the beginning of the decade, the market was dominated by Parisian designers of expensive haute couture garments. Formal suits for women underwent a structural change resulting in looser lines and shorter skirts.
