The style of the 60s includes both “little girl” fashion garments, with an innocent touch, and “psychedelic” fashion, where geometric shapes stand out. But if we have to opt for the five most characteristic garments of this style that will return this season, we have chosen the following.

It is the key piece of this style and marked a before and after in fashion, leaving behind the image of the demure woman of previous years. It is a garment that highlights the female body and enhances all the curves. If you have not yet dared to wear one, there is no better time to do so than this spring-summer.

- Babydoll dresses, comfort made a garment
Babydoll dresses are those that have a straight cut and trapeze silhouette. They are perfect for those days when you want to be comfortable, but without giving up your feminine touch. Although in the 60s babydoll dresses were worn in pastel colors or polka dot prints, this season there will be no limits. They will be worn in all possible colors and prints. In addition to its comfort, babydolls are a very versatile garment that combines great with sports shoes, oxfords, or Mary Janes. With this garment, you can unleash your creativity!
