Download or read book Fashion in the 1960s written by Daniel Milford-Cottam and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2020-07-23 with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perhaps more so than any other decade, the sixties had the broadest impact on the twentieth-century Western world. Across society, culture and the arts, youth voices rose to prominence and had a significant influence on new trends. Mature polished elegance was replaced by young liveliness as the fashionable ideal. Although only the most daring young followers of fashion wore the tiny miniskirts and borderline-unwearable plastic and metal outfits publicised in the press, stylish and smart fashion was increasingly available to all, with an emphasis on self-expression. New style icons such as Twiggy combined girl-next-door looks with trendy, aspirational and accessible outfits, and popular culture heavily influenced mainstream fashion. This beautifully illustrated book offers a concise guide to changing styles across the decade.

Download or read book Sixties Fashion written by Hildegard Ringena and published by Walther Konig Verlag. This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The revolutionary era of the 1960s saw many societal changes, which left an unmistakable mark on fashion. London took over Paris' position as the trend-setting capital, mini skirts and jeans were being worn by teenagers all over the world, pantsuits and oriental style evening wear even found their way into haute couture. The Germans travelled en masse to Italy for the first time and beach and bathing wear was more revealing and casual than ever before. The international media propagated this change with unprecedented fashion photography and illustration. This fashion revolution is uniquely represented here by the Sammlung Modebild - Lipperheidsche Kostümbibliothek. This book shows the most important fashion trends of the decade, divided into 12 thematic sections. English and German text.
Download or read book Full Color Sourcebook of French Fashion written by Pauquet Frères and published by Courier Corporation. This book was released on 2003-08-04 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These color plates by Hippolyte Pauquet and his brother Polydore, reproduced directly from a rare and valuable nineteenth-century publication, magnificently depict 500 years of French fashion. Starting with the flamboyant headgear and voluminous robes of fifteenth-century royalty, the artfully rendered illustrations progress chronologically to the high-waisted Empire styles of the Napoleonic era. Members of the nobility and upper classes are well represented here. Portraits of lavishly garbed court ladies and gentlemen--many in fur-trimmed robes--appear next to dapper pages and handsome knights. Bourgeois fashions (including lace-trimmed garments for both sexes) are presented as well, along with the more modest attire of chamber maids, milkmaids, and shepherdesses. Images of such historic figures as King Henri IV, Madame de Pompadour, Madame du Barry, and Marie Antoinette complete a splendid collection. A valuable reference for costume designers and fashion historians, this beautifully reproduced volume will also serve as a grand treat for fashion enthusiasts.
Download or read book Vivienne Westwood written by Fred Vermorel and published by Abrams. This book was released on 1997-10-01 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vivienne Westwood was the Queen of Punk Rock and her fashions have scandalized and fascinated the world since the Sixties. Parading models bare-breasted down the catwalks of Paris, posing pantiless outside Buckingham Palace-she has an insatiable appetite for anarchic outrageousness. She has never lost her power to shock, and her continued innovations make her one of the most talked about fashion designers in the world. But little is know about this essentially private woman. What is she like What is the secret of her success.Gleaned from more than thirty years of interviews with Westwood herself, Vivienne Westwood describes for the first time in detail Westwood's childhood and early years; it also exposes the inside story of her stormy and bizarre relationship with musician and fashionista Malcolm McLaren. The author looks at the origins of Westwood's witty and erotic sensibility, placing it in the context of the sixties, and throwing light on the dynamics of punk and on Westwood's later ability to tap into the inner logic of fashion - a Romantic perversity which is at the heart of mass consumption itself. As a dirty history of the Sixties shared by Westwood, McLaren and the author, and as a story of the triumph of a mad, bad, outrageous girl, Vivienne Westwood succeeds brilliantly.

Download or read book Film Fashion and the 1960s written by Eugenia Paulicelli and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2017-09-11 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fascinating look at one of the most experimental, volatile, and influential decades, Film, Fashion, and the 1960s, examines the numerous ways in which film and fashion intersected and affected identity expression during the era. From A Hard Day's Night to Breakfast at Tiffany's, from the works of Ingmar Bergman to Blake Edwards, the groundbreaking cinema of the 1960s often used fashion as the ultimate expression for urbanity, youth, and political (un)awareness. Crumbling hierarchies brought together previously separate cultural domains, and these blurred boundaries could be seen in unisex fashions and roles played out on the silver screen. As this volume amply demonstrates, fashion in films from Italy, France, England, Sweden, India, and the United States helped portray the rapidly changing faces of this cultural avant-gardism. This blending of fashion and film ultimately created a new aesthetic that continues to influence the fashion and media of today.
