After several attempts of researching the evolution of bohemian fashion during the 1960s, i realised that Bohemian fashion in the 1960s did not last very long. It only appeared around  1968 to early 1970s due to the Hippie's movement which was quite a short period of time. Therefore, i decided to shift my focus onto the 1960s modern fashion instead.

"By 1968, hippie-influenced fashions were beginning to take off in the mainstream, especially for youths and younger adults of the populous "Baby Boomer" generation.."
