The Most Iconic '60s Style That Looks Just as Cool Today

Fashion is constantly looking to the past for inspiration. While we circle back through the decades and throwback trends rise in favor, it's no surprise that elements of '60s style continue to reemerge again and again, proving that they have staying power no matter the era. Bringing to life unexpected silhouettes, bold new colorways, and a certain sense of insouciance that still manages to be impeccably tailored and chic, '60s style served up enough sartorial inspiration to last a lifetime.

The decade was an explosion of expression after the bottled up, pristine look of the '50s—bright colors took the main stage, and the world became fascinated with the London look. Mod style made a lasting impression, and everything about fashion was artful, fun, and free. From sleek sleeveless shift dresses to oversize sunglasses to bright head-to-toe whites, we've held on to the '60s style moments that will continue to resonate today and tomorrow.
