Fashion Advice For 2010

If you’re looking for bold fashion advice, then look back to the sixties, the era of freedom and liberation. That was perhaps the era of greater social change than any era since. The world as we know it today would not be here if not for the sixties.
From the Civil Rights Movement to Women’s liberation, the 60s paved the way. This era of liberation even spread to the fashion industry. No other lasting item of apparel proves this point more than the mini skirt.
Different people spell it differently, but the mini-skirt, miniskirt or mini skirt remains the same: it is short and sexy and only for the young and the bold. A French fashion label was the first to lift the hemline above the knees in 1964.
The style didn’t catch on, however, until a British designer took the idea and pushed the hemline up even further. At that time, in 1966, the mini skirt was called the Chelsea style.
After that, the miniskirt ruled the fashion world. Some thanks has to be given to the inventors of the pantyhose, because without that, there may never have been a mini. At any rate, it took off like a rocket and it wasn’t long before every woman young enough to get away with it was wearing a mini skirt in the clubs and on the streets of every major city.
Since the sixties, mini-skirts have waxed and waned in popularity, but have never really gone out of style. They are made from every conceivable fabric and worn for every occasion. The casual denim version is perhaps the most popular, but it’s not unheard of for a girl to choose to wear a tight see-through lycra mini or a sexy schoolgirl mini.
So what is the best fashion advice for the fearless fashionista? Don’t take anyone’s advice. The message of the sixties was: “do your own thing.” Take it to heart, ladies and show the world what you’ve got!
