Explaining 60s Mod Fashion & Subculture

Hello dolls, 🌼 and welcome to "Explaining 60s Mod Fashion & Subculture"! Join me on a trip through time back to London in the 1960s were a subculture shaped a decade. In the early 1960s the mod subculte emerged amongst the youth. Influenced by the Beatniks and Beat music from the US and Jamaica the Modernists danced the night away in clubs all over London. Enraging their parents with their short and colorful clothes this generation had a lot of disposable income that they eagerly spend on clothes by Mary Quant and her fellow Mod fashion designers. A lot of women started working as shopgirls giving them a feeling of freedom and a glamourous sense of dressing up while the MOD boys rode arounf town on their scooters. Bands like The Who and The Yardbirds emerged from this scene making music for Mods that for and all of those who wanted to be like them. Movies like "Blow Up" or "Thank you very much" were widely successfull while the Who sang about "My Generation". While being short lived the Mod Subculture had great influence on fashion, music and art and is still referenced in pop culture to this day. Modfashion has become a time capsule standing synonymously with London in the 1960s and a new generation of musician, artist and designers and influencing many to write and sing about. It’s well preserved in those tunes and the wonderful fashion referenced and replicated until today. Sending you dolls the biggest hug, thank you for watching! 💌 All my lovin, xx Emma 💌 Always re
