Hippies & Go Go Costumes for Women

The sixties will always be known as the decade of youth, largely because during this time period, the post war baby boomers were growing up and becoming teenagers. These teenagers were shunning the ultra conservative values of the 1950’s, and taking their lives in a bit of a different direction. This generation of teenagers wanted (and got) changes in education, lifestyle, music as well as other forms of entertainment, making the 1960’s a time of great social and societal change.

Hippies, a term often used to describe the somewhat rebellious, activist young people prevalent during this time period of the ‘60’s, turning from the traditional ways of their parents and society at large. “Peace, love and rock and roll” was the battle cry of the day. The hippie’s distinctive, somewhat native and androgynous fashions will always be a huge part of what defines this memorable decade as well. Long hair on both men and women, headbands, tie-dyed shirts and sandals--these are just some of the apparel items worn by the somewhat bohemian flower children of this very dynamic time period.

Recreating a 1960’s style is a fun retro look that can’t be beat for a hip kind of fun that marches to the beat of its own rock n’ roll groove. Use our women’s Hippie and Go-Go costume selection to find your best classic 1960’s look today!
