Peace Love,& Perfect Shoes
|
|
Starting with Jackie and ending with Janis, the 1960s was a decade of social turbulence fueled by peace, love and politics.
Fashion ranged from the primly sophisticated to the down and dirty rocker chick. In between, there was the earth-mother, and the mod nod to the space-age. It was a trip all right!
So when today's fashion gurus proclaim, "The 60s Are Back", what exactly do they mean?
We say start with the shoes and let the rest of the current flower child obsession settle into whatever it will. For the time being, the barbaric years of painfully high stilettos are behind us and heels are fashionably lower.
