Space Age Futuristic Fashion

Emerging in the mid-’60s, The Space Age movement in couture was known not only for its eccentric materials but for its cartoonish silhouettes, helmet–shaped hats, insulated dresses, and of course, moon boots. America was entering a new era that starkly contrasted the traditional feminine figures and delicate patterns in women’s fashion of the ’50s.

For the men of this period, chances are they were enamored by the futuristic fashion that was all the rage. The space race captivated the world, breeding new designers determined to create outfits that would take women to the next level. The look was all about sleek tech fabrics and space-age silhouettes.
