1960
For young girls the mini-skirt was popular. Women wore pale foundation, mascara and false eyelashes. To the end of the decade they started experimenting with colours, patterns and textures.
​
For men colourful new elements were introduced, such as the collarless jacket, worn with slim-fitting trousers and boots. During the mid-1960s frills were worn with vividly printed shirts. Then lapels and trousers took on wide dimensions.
​
Clothing became increasingly unisex as men and women shopped at the same boutiques for similar items.
