About the 60's


The 1960's began with crew cuts on men and bouffant hairstyles on women. Men's casual shirts were often plaid and buttoned down the front, while knee-length dresses were required wear for women in most public places. By mid-decade, miniskirts or hot pants, often worn with go-go boots, were revealing legs, bodywear was revealing curves, and women's hair was either very short or long and lanky. Men's hair became longer and wider, with beards and moustaches. Men's wear had a renaissance. Bright colors, double-breasted sports jackets, polyester pants suits with Nehru jackets, and turtlenecks were in vogue. By the end of the decade, ties, when worn, were up to 5" wide, patterned even when worn with stripes. Women wore peasant skirts or granny dresses and chunky shoes. Unisex dressing was popular, featuring bell bottomed jeans, love beads, and embellished t-shirts. Clothing was as likely to be purchased at surplus stores as boutiques. Blacks of both genders wore their hair in an afro.

thank you.

Hi Suellen,
interesting capture and spontaneous expression.
The slight sepia feel is good and so is the wall texture at the back..
Perhaps the hat is slightly over-exposed, resulting in a slight loss of detail there.
But a good effort all the same.

Best regards, Daniel

Very nice portrait with emotion. The model of course is nice and the bricks behind add to the composition. TFS. K2
