DESCRIPTION:
"A decade of fashion change" according to Janice/Robert W. Laird. Fun to see what regular people wore during the 1960s, as opposed to the couture stuff worn by Jackie Kennedy, Audrey Hepburn, etc. Huge changes in style throughout the decade, from the classic styles of the early '60s to the really wacko stuff at the end! (And yes, I wore some of these styles!). "I can remember wearing some of these fashions" according to A Customer I can remember wearing some of these fashions A Customer 42 Boy am I showing my age but I do remember wearing some of these fashions, or wishing I could have worn them, and I loved reading this book. A real trip down memory lane.. 2. Boy am I showing my age but I do remember wearing some of these fashions, or wishing I could have worn them, and I loved reading this book. A real trip down memory lane.. Pam said Black & white photos - no color!. Biggest problem is that while the photos are gorgeous, none are in color -- Only color pix are the inside covers!!! No wonder the book is so low-priced - the only reason I'm not returning it. I would not have bought this book if I had known photos were b&w.
Over 300 black-and-white illustrations.. Items include apparel for men, women, and children — from lingerie and playclothes to bridal ensembles, Madras jackets, and vinyl slicker coats. This compilation from a style-conscious decade features scores of illustrations with their original captions specifying colors, sizes, prices. Introduction
