說到1960年代,你會先想到誰?是穿著正式帶著禮帽的賈桂琳甘迺迪(Jacqueline Kennedy),還是大家心中優雅代名詞的奧黛麗赫本(Audrey Hepburn)、葛麗絲凱莉( Grace Kelly),又或是在1960年代崛起的鬼靈精怪傳奇名模崔姬(Twiggy) 和浪漫不羈的珍柏金(Jane Birkin),傳奇人物形塑了當年的潮流與時尚,眾人們爭相模仿著他們的風格與神韻,至今,歷史文化風格滋養了現代,在快速更迭的世代裡,化身為靈感繆思,讓一切皆慢之感受。

法式不羈
60年代晚期,時尚受到了年輕文化的影響,嬉皮與波希米亞風格成為主流,傳奇女星Jane Birkin 豪放不羈、自由叛逆的生活態度引領著法式潮流,穿著休閒牛仔褲、波希米亞風格的蕾絲上衣、披風(Ponchos)、迷幻的印花與紮染襯衫,隨著 Jane Birkin 與 Serge Gainsbourg 唱著je t’aime moi non plus 的旋律,悠然起年代下的激情浪漫。

60年代掀起太空時尚熱潮,隨著各國太空競賽的影響,社會陷入對於太空的熱情於迷思,對於太空的幻想更是體現於電影、媒體與時裝中,人造纖維、塑膠感和PVC材質於當時可說是主流,經典的形象像是廓形,膠裝材質,閃光感或是帶有金屬質感的面料,讓60 年代注入了更多的未來科技感,而前衛設計大師Paco Rabanne 與義大利裔法國服裝設計師 Pierre Cardin 都為太空時尚的代表,為60年代劃上宇宙探險的神秘開端。

解放女人雙腿迷你裙
成為了60年代時尚傳奇的代表人物。帶著小女孩靈氣、天真卻又叛逆的氣質,翻轉了年代下優雅淑女的時尚風氣,迷你裙與迷你洋裝成為她的招牌。褪去保守年代的拘謹,女性開始穿上了極短的短裙,也是反叛青年文化的一部分,迷你裙也是年輕、自由、叛逆的代名詞,具有時代意義與時裝歷史痕跡。

豹紋印花
動物紋於 1969 年成為熱潮,各式浮誇的花紋印花性感狂野,動物紋的變奏曲交織成一場盛大的自然叢林派對。豹紋顛覆了大眾對女性溫柔嬌媚的形象,豹紋的野性美感總是能讓當代女性看起來更加幹練以及霸氣,流竄著自由叛逆的氣息。也許迷戀於復古年代無法反轉也無法改變,但重回復古年代能做夢,能讓時間慢下來,回到那個慢年代。也許比起平穩,那種在隱隱作祟即將迸發的熱情更是令人著迷,流連忘返。

Speaking of the 1960s, who comes to your mind first? Is it Jacqueline Kennedy in her pillbox hat, Audrey Hepburn, Grace Kelly, Twiggy, or Jane Birkin? All these legendary figures shaped the fashion trends of their time, and the people rushed to imitate these iconic styles and impeccable charm. In this fast changing world, history and culture become an enrichment of our present and this muse for the collective that always never fails to inspire.
The French Way
In the late Sixties, fashion was influenced by the younger generation. Hippie and Bohemian style became the major trend. With her unrestrained, rebellious life attitude, Jane Birkin was an icon that established the classic French style. Casual jeans, Bohemian lace top, ponchos, mesmerizing prints and tie-dye shirts—it is as if we are reminiscing the passionate romance of the era, where Jane Birkin and Serge Gainsbourg sang the beautiful melody of “Je t’aime moi non plus.”

Space Craze
Besides the love for the French style, there was also space-age fashion inspired by the 1960s Space Race. Fantasies about the astroworld can be seen everywhere, in films, media and fashion. The use of synthetic fiber and PVC materials were used widely, while shiny, plastic-like and metallic fabrics added a touch of futuristic style to the Sixties fashion. Like the unconventional designer Paco Rabanne and Italian-French designer Pierre Cardin, these symbolic figures of space-age fashion marked the beginning of the exploration in the 1960s.

Liberating Mini Skirts
With her iconic bob hairstyle, Mod makeup and thin figure, legendary model Twiggy was the face of the 1960 Youthquake. Embodying an innocent and yet rebellious style, she revolutionized women’s fashion with her signature mini skirt and gamine look. No longer restrained by the conservative, women began to put on shorter skirts and dresses. A part of the Youthquake movement, Mod beauty became the embodiment of youth, freedom and defiance, with traces of a meaningful era and the history of ready-to-wear.

The Leopard Print

By 1969, animal prints had become the major trend. Seductive and wild, the variety of exaggerated patterns came together as one, grand jungle party. The leopard print subverted the traditional female image, which was soft and tender, and made modern women appear more confident, independent and domineering. Perhaps some may think reminiscing the past cannot bring any change, but a girl can dream about slowing down time and returning to our favorite retro era. In the end, there is always something appealing about a passion that slowly grows and expands, reminding us of a mesmerizing time that we could never forget.
