1960s men’s clothing was worn tighter to show off youthful bodies. Shirts were unbuttoned to show off a bit of chest and pants lowered down on the hip. Bold colors and big color block patterns were favorite.
Even basic suits and sport coats were worn with a bold pop of color, like a red vest or neck scarf. Older men who were afraid to adopt these stand-out statements still had plenty of greys and browns to wear, but even they adopted some of the newer slim styles in toned-down colors on the weekends.
Here below is a set of amazing photos that show what men’s clothing looked like in the 1960s.
