 1960s ladies' dress part one of one
1965 saw the premiere of culotte dresses in op-art or vibrant coloured patters, which were most popular as evening or party wear - the freedom of trousers but with the look of a full skirt.
The shift dress made its appearance in the late 50s - a slim fitting dress which, barely covering the knee, was scandalously short.
Though it didn’t become popular all around the world, particularly England, it inspired a new, slimmer look in dresses, beginning with the sheath dress popular in late 50s Britain.
