hey i'm from brazil and when someone talks about 60s, they talk about polkadots, long skirts and long gloves. honestly, our 60s themed parties suck so bad. everybody at these parties wears polkadots. EVERYBODY. they even mix different polkadots in the same outfit. may i ask why would they think 60s is all about tacky polkadots? wasn't the MOD movement very popular????

“invader-girl asked fuckyeah60sfashion:

google “festa anos 60” and see the nightmare yourself. ugh :s”

LOL. I honestly did not know that people associated polka dots with the 1960’s. Those outfits look very fifties to me! I have posted many photos from Brazilian fashion magazines but perhaps street fashion in 60’s Brazil was a bit behind the times? The 60’s was a very broad decade fashion wise but mod would definitely be the easiest way to look dead on sixties. So many movements happened & fashion changed so rapidly compared to the decades before. We went from circle skirts to mini skirts to bell bottoms. Which is why the 1960’s is probably the most poorly represented decades. If you google image search “60’s costumes” and then “70’s costumes” you get almost identical results.
This, depresses me.
Which is why I run this blog.

Hey, I'm posting pictures of Twiggy from the 60's! Her posing clothes, covers, everything. Just thought you should know :D

Fab! There’s no such thing as too much Twiggy! And I think Tumblr would agree. ;)

I love this blog. You have a wonderful compilation of images, I hope you don't mind me taking some to inspire for my new line!

Thank you. =)
One of the main goals of this blog is inspiration, so I would feel very fulfilled if the photos achieve that.
