Beautiful Photos of the Most Stylish 1960s Fashion Trends
Posted on October 22, 2026
The 1960s was an era of pretty diverse fashion trends. You can see the influence coming off the more modern trends of the 50s, as well as the transition to ‘hippie’ fashion in the late 1960s.
The mini skirt became popularized, as well as go-go boots, bold prints and colors, as well as several styles such as the Mods, beatnik, and couture.
The First Lady, Jackie Kennedy, also became a bit of a style icon. She popularized the pillbox hat, matching skirt and sweater outfits, and huge sunglasses.
It was also the rise of trousers for women, turtlenecks and casual suits for men, and big and bold accessories like earrings, necklaces, and makeup.
