DRESS, FASHION TRENDS
Everything was changing in America during the 1960’s. The war ended a few years earlier and the post-war Baby Boomers were just stopping their boom and giving way to normal American life. Fashion designers also began to change during the 1960’s, as the ‘50’s had represented a clear imitation of the rock ‘n roll lifestyle. White sleeves rolled up on a t-shirt and a pair of black jeans was no longer the norm during the ‘60’s and legit fashion designers brought couture into fashion during this decade. Chanel made the first mark on the scene and the change was set into motion.

AT LEAST 5 EXAMPLES OF AN ADVERTISEMENT FROM THE DECADE
Colors exploded and artwork often replaced photography. And how could we have lived without some of the best catch-slogans of the decade? I'd almost forgotten about things like Contac and the 600 tiny time capsules. The media in those days was so instrumental to my growing up that the ads and commericals are like old friends to me now. 50's and 60's media had a strong focus on what was to be believed as the American dream, complete with nuclear family and the perfect "Ozzie and Harriet-esque" lifestyle.
