1960s Men's Clothing, 70s Men's Fashion

1960s men’s clothing changed from the conservative yet relaxed 1950s fashion into simplified clothing. Casual was in, formality was out. By the mid ’60s men’s fashion took a sharp turn and flew across the pond to the Mod style worn by British musicians. The Beatles, beatniks, and Steve McQueen were fashion idols for a few years until the late 60s hippie movement brought out anti-fashion bell bottom pants, crazy shirts, platform shoes and polyester everything. This continued into the 1970s where a return to earthy folk hippie fashion dominated the decade. 70s disco fashion added some flashy outfits to otherwise nature-inspired colors and fabrics. Men’s bell bottoms pants, 70s shirts and platform shoes grooved on and off the dance floor.
