These 10 ‘60s Trends Are Making a Comeback For Fall/Winter 24-25

By Isha Pati

What goes around comes around! Here are our top 10 picks for trends from the 1960s that are coming back in fashion this fall/winter. In my opinion, they’re all must-tries!!

#1 – Shift Dresses

Think Jackie Kennedy. Think Sharon Tate. Think wearing a babydoll dress without looking pregnant. Mod is making a huge comeback this year, and the shift silhouette is sure to stay with us well into spring/summer.

#2 – Colored Tights

Hello, Twiggy! We’ve seen colored tights in shades from emerald to eggplant on runways, on the red carpet, and on accident when you have too much merlot and spill. No need to be ashamed anymore! Burgundy tights are super in!

#3 – Rise of the young religious right in the Republican party

Call it reactionary, call it radicalization, call it whatever you want except for out of style, because it is not!!

#4 – Skirt/jacket sets

Think Jackie Kennedy. You are going to slay the house down when you step out in your tweed skirt set, knee-length car coat, and sunglasses that serve old money sophistication.

#5 – Restricted access to reproductive care

This ’60s trend can be seen in states all over the country, from Idaho to West Virginia! Great news for all us girlies out there who are just so over bodily autonomy. #Awesome! Plus, it’s easy to hide an unwanted pregnancy with a super trendy slip dress!

#6 – Mary Janes!

These shoes are practical, comfortable, and just cute as a dang button! Little known fact, Mary Jane is also a slang term for a street drug called marijuana.

#7 – Assassination attempts

Think Jackie Kennedy as well as her husband John Fitzgerald. With not one but two major assassination attempts in the headlines this F/W, who knows what else could be in store this season hint hint I mean what.

#8 – Boho chic!

Just because it’s winter doesn’t mean this can’t still be your summer of love! Janis Joplin! Kylie Jenner! One of those Hadid girls? Wear feathers if you want! Who even cares!

#9 – Mounting fears of global nuclear war

Did somebody say arms race? With just one year left before the last agreement limiting Russian and American arsenals expires, mutually assured destruction hasn’t loomed this imminently since the Cuban Missile Crisis! So don’t worry about that! Instead, worry about looking your best though the whole nuclear winter by stocking up on accessories that give bunker chic and hope that the powers that be all have our best interests at heart…
