Fashion is fun, but fashion is also an important part of people's lives. People often use fashion to say something about how they think or feel about life. How a person dresses often defines who the person is.
Music changed fashion in the 60s more than any other decade. In the early 60s, people dressed in trendy clothes. Men used to wear short-sleeved shirts and loose trousers. Women used to wear A-line dresses. With the Beatles came collarless jackets and tight trousers. Then hippies wore bell-bottom trousers (very wide at the bottom ), bright colours and headbands.
In 1970, when the music band ABBA appeared, people used to wear colourful outfits like theirs. Girls used to wear mini-skirts and boots. Men's clothes were tight tops and bell-bottoms. Platform shoes became very popular. Disco fans used to wear three -piece suits and shirts with long collars.
In the 1980s, glamorous musicians like David Bowie and Duran Duran inspired fashion designers.
Men used to wear leggings, long, thick socks called leg warmers, sweatshirts and ripped jeans.
In 2026, fashion is defined by oversized looks. Expect tailored long shorts, structured blazers, and
"cigarette " jeans . The colours are canary yellow, rich teal, vibrant purple and pink. Fringes are used and large bows . Scarves and belts are used in new ways and belts to add personality.
