What are some 60's Hippie costume ideas?

Me and my best friend are planning our sweet 16, and we want a 60’s themed party. I’ve been looking at hippie costuems and I can’t really find any that I like. Does anyone have any ideas on what we could wear? Maybe make the hippie cosutme more modern?

Tie dies, peace signs, bell bottoms (the bigger the better), paint flowers on your face. If you want to look upscale hippie, neru jackets with gawdy metal necklaces and crew neck shirts. Peasant dresses with floral prints. were big back then. Hairstyles were ether short kinky hair or long and straight. Girls usually wore long pig tails set at the sides of the ears or braided and indian bands on their forehead. Shoes were square toed or sandals, or moccassins. Jackets were suede as were purses. Feathers were also big as most hippie’s migrated to the American Indian look. I’d say your best finds for costumes from the Hippie era would be checking out your second hand, thrift, and vitage clothing stores.

Answer #2

Marisha’s description is very good. Also: peasant blouses; headbands; western style neckerchiefs; patched and embroidered blue jeans; long strings of colorfully dyed seeds (make your own!); and lots of colorful patterns that don’t necessarily go together, in flowing natural fabrics.

Answer #3

They forgot to add to stop bathing and shaving…

Answer #4

Lol, that’s half true; don’t shave your legs or under your arms! But bathing is okay - especially in a local swimming hole without a suit {:^)

Answer #5

(he roin) needle sticking out of your arm

Answer #6

Answer #7

Now if you know anybody with a VW beetle or old VW Van, you can put removable daisy’s on it, park it in the driveway or out front, and walaha instant back to the 60’s Hippie party. :)

Answer #8

Answer #9

Answer #10

I actually wanted to save up my money and buy one and restore it so I can drive it when I turn 16. I think that it would be really cool. :)

Answer #11
