Good job Ari! Having lived through both decades, your observations are right on the mark. What no one talks about is to get that wide southern-belle profile of the 1950s, you had to wear at least 2 crinolines (very stiff and scratchy} and 1 slip under your dress. Capri pants were called pedal-pushers or clam diggers in 1950s. No one called them "capri pants." When the mini skirt came out in 1960s, you had to wear either leotards, knee socks, or go bare legged when wearing them. Nylon stockings were too short.... we were still wearing garter belts and girdles with stockings at the time ....and so they invented pantyhose. As for wearing plastic overcoats, dresses, etc. ... they looked great but they were hotter than hell!
Wow, I never knew all that! Thank you for sharing. Fashion was so different back then... it's so interesting to hear from someone who actually experienced it! 😊💖
My heart will always be with the 50s. My favourite music, silhouette, and all round favourite era. However, I do have a soft spot for the 60s and I love how drastically the silhouette changed and how fun and playful the style was!
Despite the 50’s being looked at as frigid and ultra conservative, in the long run, it has been way more influential than the 60’s. The pinup/rockabilly look of the 50’s is much more copied and emulated today than any 60’s look. Dita Von Teese, Rhianna, Katy Perry, Madonna , Christina Aguilera, Gwen Stefani, Beyoncé ect have all been inspired by 1950’s old Hollywood glamour whereas no one is walking around in miniskirts or go-go boots or trying to look like a hippy from the 60’s. Not only that, but the 50’s also produced the most iconic sex symbols OF ALL TIME, like James Dean, Marlon Brando, Elvis Presley, Marilyn Monroe, and Bettie Page, whose images adorn everything from clocks to lunchboxes. With the exception of maybe Edie Sedgwick, you can’t really say the same of 60’s icons like Twiggy, Goldie Hawn, Sharon Tate ect. Even as far as decor, you see 50’s themed diners (me and my husband went to one in Maui a few years ago) with the old Coca-Cola signs, pictures of Vargas girls, and jukeboxes being copied much, much more than the psychedelic, flower power/smiley face look of the 60’s. The 50’s look has definitely been more influential.
The 50s style was DRASTICALLY influenced by Diors first release in 1947 called “The New Look”....it exemplifies everything thats feminine & beautiful about 50s style- rounded shoulders, cinched waist + very full skirt. If u ever have a chance 2 see the Dior exhibit at MMA its amazing!
I love both the 50s and 60s fashion so much! I love the silhouettes and elegant 50s look. However I find the 60s so trendy and eye-catching. I find the 50s look more flattering on myself in general, but the shift dresses are definitely very stylish and work well with my (short) height haha 😂.
It is always neat to see the differences of the various fashion decades, and the slow progression between them. :) I always find it funny when people think that in 1960 every one immediately started dressing as hippies.
I love the black and white photo of Helen Bunny model from the 50's In her gingham dress and white gloves scanning through her book.She's amazingly beautiful.
Such a complete info! Although I also love the 50s, I think the 60s are very underrated. So unique, varied and experimental! Definitely my favourite era in fashion
I really Love early 60s women’s fashion I think the whole Jackie O & Audrey vibes !! I think it has such a good combo of that classy & structured look with a bit of a more interesting silhouettes! I personally don’t like mod very much I find it super boxy and not flattering but I do love a more early to mid 60s look kinda like mad men like ✨
@@ThatsSoAri Watching Mad Men was like reliving my childhood and early career, I'm the same age as Sally Draper. And I also worked in the big ad agencies in NYC and Chicago during the late 1970s, and early 1980s, and it's the most realistic portrait of the ad business back in the day, I've ever seen!
I love the 60's and their style... especially the dresses at 2:08 . I want to dress like that but people would think I was wierd... I'm also too fat in my stomach.
Yay! A new video from you! A great way to end the month (or I guess technically START the month since it's after midnight here, haha). Always enjoy watching these and you look amazing as always. I think the 60's style has more vibrant colors to it so if I had to pick I'd go with that but the 50's aesthetic is great, too. I think I mentioned this before but it's amazing how different so many things were in 1960 compared to 1969. I kind of think of 1960 as more 50's than 60's anyway, but 1969 was kind of a pre-70's year in a way that 1959 wasn't to the 60's (except in one key area, the folk music revival began in the late 50's).
Yes, that is SO true. I think the early 60s were still somewhat closely connected to the 50s, but things changed so rapidly about mid-decade. Thank for the insightful comment!! 😀😀😀
Very true, plus there's lots of regional variation. I live in a rust belt city and the postwar era through the 50's was kind of like a Great Depression part II since the railroads were in decline and a lot of people were laid off regularly and out of work, a video I saw filmed in 1960 showed a city with a very 1930's look and feel to it. And from about 1961-1966 here it was kind of our "50's" from what I heard from my parents and others around at the time and the late 60's and 70's kind of melted together here, most of the 70's was like a blend of 60's and 70's styles and culture.
Not everywhere. Many places yes, but there were a lot of places that saw hard times in the 50's due to the decline of many types of industry. While in places like California and New York the increase in office jobs allowed for a better standard of living, more people moving to the suburbs, and a boom of commercial businesses, college towns began to flourish due to more people being able to go to university, and Michigan saw a boom in the automotive industry due to people travelling more, industries like the railroad industry, coal industry, and steel industry were on a steady decline that began after WWII, which meant more people would be laid off and not have a source of income. Dayton (Ohio), Johnstown (Pennsylvania), Pittsburgh (Pennsylvania), Altoona (Pennsylvania), Gary (Indiana), are great examples of this. It wasn't all doom and gloom, though. The downtowns of these cities remained somewhat vibrant and active because of the people living their walking downtown for stuff to buy. Some of these cities were able to recover (such as Pittsburgh) while others like Dayton and Altoona continued their downward spiral.
Thank u for this video! For Halloween at my school it will be our 50th day of school so we need to dress up if we were in the 50s This gave me great tips! I’ll maybe go with black and white dress
If you research the "go-go boot" style, you see that it began with one style (very classic, low heel) by French designer André Courrèges, but there were a lot of spinoffs. And those spinoffs were made with cheaper materials and had chunkier heels. The original style is more collectible today than the later versions, (and I don't think I'm alone in thinking that they there were much better-looking, too), but were more expensive to acquire back then.
50s clothing is what is clothing. ..nowadays ppl wear ripped stuff calling it fashion? ??. I liked how they dint fake the facial features instead did maximum with what they have unlike nowadays plumping lips, broom like lashes soo long, cat claws nails, charcoal like contour, complete colour family in hair, neon eyeshadows😂
Probably 60's. It's more attainable today (it's easier to find 60's looking stuff). I like the 50's but the 60's just has a bit more fun and flair to it, a little more playful than 50's elegant style.
Ari, Incredible love your music underneath your video, well done. The fifties in film dress and hairstyle was sophisticated i.e Elizabeth Taylor, Grace Kelly, Sophie Loren couture often paired with white gloves. early Sixties Marilyn, and Jackie!! The middle sixties big hair short hems very young, free-lance hip, cool, with a dash of sass! Ari you've GOT IT!
I'm looking in the comments of thrifting videos and finding more cool UA-camrs like you! I think i like 60s fashion mainly because of the go go boots. Love the observations (and music)
How did you find, playing at 8:20, the French song "C'est le temps de l'amour" by Francoise Hardy? That really caught my attention because my French 101 teacher's assistant taught us that song during my freshman year of college (when we were into early 70's fashion!). Great video! I was fascinated by my 1st grade teacher's wardrobe in 1960-61 of full-skirted 50's dresses. She had a lot of shirtwaist dresses but also polka-dotted numbers with the deep neckline in back. Would love to have been able to wear 1950s fashion but I came along too late for that. Very feminine era, the 50s! :)
Please Help! How is that "dress" called the LEFT woman wears at 03:55 ? I urgently need something like that BUT with longer sleeves and longer in total, like slightly under the knees. Thank you community :-* SPREAD LOVE
The 60s sounds so creepy to me. It definitely was the beginning of hollywood making children things accepted. What I mean is *Cough cough* cuties. Either way the reason I am on this video is because I found a photo of my grandmother that I am painting but it's black and white and I wanted to add color.

True! It sure seems that way.
My fave is late 60s early 70s❤️❤️❤️ I’m starting to redo my whole wardrobe and make it all vintage
sameee, I dress psychedelic (yes love colors) and early 70s everyday and I feel so much better than when I dressed “ “normal” 🧡🦋🍄🌈
@@maëstvsn exactly...its less skin revealing and beautiful design
I like 60s style way better because it’s was more fun, playful and unique.
Lexe Cat Well said!! I feel the same 😀
No not me 50s RULE!

Yes, I feel the same way!! The cut of many 50s clothes was very flattering and classic. The 60s were funky and super fun.
I love late 50s and early 60s fashion

Yes!! It was a gradual evolution of style 😊😊😊
You did a good job, having remembered these eras myself.
Thank you! I appreciate it.
I prefer 50s style! Elegant amd fiminine
Absolutely
50s were the best! The clothes were so feminine and beautiful!
The 50s will always be my favorite decade ❤️
50s and 60s are both my favourites. They’re best.
For Halloween I want to dress like the 50s with round glasses but my hair is naturally like the 60s without hairspray so the struggle is real rn
My hair admittedly is wavy not straight but Paul Mitchell shaping spray helps set curls that will stay
I love the 1950s because I love the fashion, from bowling shirts to poodles skirts 😎😎😎😎
The 60s were a rebellion against the expectations that kids were put under in the 50s. At least that's what I see when I look at my moms childhood.
50’s I was born 83. And now they are trying to bring back the 50/80. Makes sense. 💁🏽♀️❤️💯
And I do love the 60s to but I more a fan of the 50s
Same here
I love the black and white photo of Helen Bunny model from the 50's In her gingham dress and white gloves scanning through her book.She's amazingly beautiful.

I like the 50s it's classy but I love the 60s too
i love of 60's ever 💖💖💖
I see 60 as the a generational shift transitional decade. Begining of an era that succeeded the 50's and flowed into the 70's.

It's essentially Comfort vs Glamour.
60's
I’m a 60s hippie not really but I’m still a hippie and still like the 60s more
I LIKE 50s & 60s Stuff.
the 60s are a mix of 50s and 70s
I prefer 50’s. 60’s got to out of control. Sex and war a lot it seems. And sometimes together wow.
You should have also included the differences in lingerie...and there were some.....
Is this the girl from "ACTUALLY HAPPENED" ??
No! Haha, I'm not actually sure what that is 😅
I loved your style please your profile Instagram
