Back Track - 60s Inspired Fashion
Lately I've been really inspired by 60s fashion. With the semester coming to the end, I've been catching up on tv shows. Nothing makes me wants to shop and sort through my wardrobe more than Pan Am. The clothes. are. amazing. I've included some photos of dresses from Pin Up Girl Clothing that are reminiscent of this.
I personally find the 50s and 60s to be especially interesting because in spite of sexism being prevalent at the time, women were beginning to explore their roles in society and question the boundaries imposed upon them. The clothes of the time reflect this - they're very feminine, very chic and so lady-like. Yet they were becoming more contemporary and exciting (girdles exempted, of course).
