Fashions of the 1960's

Long hair for both sexes, and more facial hair for men than was common at that time. Many white people associated with the American Civil Rights Movement and the 1960s counterculture, especially those with curly or hair "nappy", wear their hair in afros truly mimic African-Americans.

Brightly colored clothing, unusual styles, such as bell-bottom pants, tie-dyed clothing, dashikis, peasant blouses, and non-Western inspired clothing with a pattern of American, African and Latin American native. Many are homemade hippie clothes in protest of Western consumer culture. Head scarf, headband, necklace beads long (for men and women), and sandals are also fashionable.

VW Bus is known as a symbol of counterculture / hippie, and many buses are repainted with graphics and / or custom paint job-this is the predecessor to modern-day art car. A peace symbol often replaced the Volkswagen logo. Due to low cost, the bus was worshiped as a utilitarian vehicle. arikiart
