Turning Japanese – 1960s Young Woman Magazine
Now we head East, bypass Lowestoft and jet over to the land of the rising sun to check out some great images from this groovy 1969 Japanese fashion magazine – Young Woman.
Whilst we’re by no means experts on Far-East female fashion fads from decades gone by there does seem to be a distinctly Japanese twist to these clothes and perhaps a slight lag behind the US and Europe who by ’69 were embracing the whole hippy-chic thing with a vengeance. These almost seem to have some hippy-esque flowery elements but still focus very much on the whole Sixties A-line cut. A distinct mixture of west meeting east perhaps. But, hey, enough of our bad fashion analysis. Check out the images below and you’ll know exactly what we’re trying to say.
