Brilliant colors, eye-popping designs, luxurious fabrics--all
these and more characterize the unforgettable fashion trends of the late
1960s and early 1970s. This was a turbulent, exciting era in our history,
and clothing styles clearly reflected the
fast-moving, youth-oriented culture we remember now with
a sense of awe. Sophisticated or casual, clothing became an expression
of personal feelings, ideas, and attitudes. Consumers hungered for bold
new looks, and designers--led by Emilio Pucci of Italy--were only too happy
to oblige. Using more than 400 color photos and illustrations, this book
showcases the wonderful assortment of dresses, blouses, jackets, pants,
shoes, and accessories worn by the most stylish of psychedelic era
men and women. Pucci’s fabulous works take center stage,
joined by a kaleidoscopic array of fashions illustrating the influence
of Op Art, “flower power,” the Eastern world, native-inspired prints, and
much more. Current values, a bibliography, and an index are all provided.
