The 60's

1960:

Fashion renewed and designers appear who want to make their own revolution. Rock music, drugs and sexual liberation make fashion eccentric. The Mary Quant and the André Courrèges are racing to discover the mini. The mini is a fact, however, and is a symbol of the decade. The Yves Saint Laurent launches Mondrian look inspired by the geometric paintings of Dutch painter. The Courrèges makes real revolution in the space of sets of plastic, faithful to the excitement of the season with the cosmonauts on the moon missions. The Paco Rabanne has clothes made of metal, breaking new ground in the manufacture of clothes.The tiny bikini is worshiped by both men and women.Models such as Twiggy and Verouska are standards of beauty. In Greece, John Vouros, the creator of the only toilet in the Greek Theatre opens his first studio, and John Tseklenis with psychedelic prints to make a success and outside the Greek borders. Elizabeth from Holland and Vanessa is the answer to the Greek model of abroad, after dominating the catwalks and showrooms. Already beginning to create a positive climate in Greek fashion designers are more familiar to the Greek public and lay the foundation for the boom to come.
