1960s Style Cocktail, Prom, Formal Dresses

1964 black formal party dresses

1960s cocktail dresses are as classy and elegant as they can be. The short cocktail 60s party dress was preferred over longer ball gowns, just as 50s pink was cast out for metallic gold, silver, and black. However, for formal occasions, the sleeveless empire waist dress with long column skirt in a rich texture was a blend of elegance and ease that reemerged in the late 70s in metallic materials and slinky cuts. The one-shoulder gown came back in fashion too while the knee length swing dress in lace continued to be a 60s formal fashion tradition. This year prom and formal goers wanting ‘ 60s inspired dresses are choosing the velvet or brocade halter neck gown. So classy!
