The Swinging Sixties

The Swinging 60s was an era of prosperity and rebellion for the young who developed a new and very different interest in fashion, music and nightclubs. Fashion became fun, designed by the young for the young and broke away from the exclusivity of haute couture.

Cavalcade’s Presentation on the Swinging 60s will feature a selection of gowns from this era – miniskirts, cocktail frocks, the little back dress, paper dresses, beachwear, underwear and nightwear. Hear the fascinating stories of the time and the women who wore these gowns.
