Pop art and op-art were popular art movements in the 1960's. Pop art and Op art were separate art movements but the public mixed them, much to the annoyance of the founding artists. The term Op-art was first coined by Time magazine. It was typified by the dramatic, trick-optic effects of line and contrasting areas of colour.

Fashion Designers picked up these art trends and modified them for use in their clothing designs. Courreges was influenced by the Op-art movement. Op art was the optical trick of contrasting areas of line and colour. Chain stores stocked black and white themed clothes and boots, coats and hats in PVC and other artificial materials. The look was effective but too much could cause headaches.

In 1961 Andy Warhol's Pop art paintings "Advertisement," 1960, "Little King," 1960, "Superman," 1960, "Saturday's Popeye," 1960 were used in the window displays of the Bonwit Teller department Store in New York.

Images from modern art appeared on dresses. They were symbols of mass-produced, commercial images.

latest fashion  

Fashion is an incredibly fickle, but fashionistas of all ages still love it! However, this can be a quite confusing topic, as the must haves of last season should never see the light of day for this season. If you find yourself wondering what’s in and what’s out, you should be properly schooled in the latest trends in fashion. By far, the best resource for finding the latest fashion trends are the plethora of available fashion magazines! Take time to flip through the fashion mags to see what’s in, what’s out, who’s wearing what, and what you shouldn’t be wearing at all!

In order to keep up with the latest trends in fashion, consider building your wardrobe around staple items that are sure to be in style regardless of the season. These basic pieces serve as the foundation for your wardrobe, allowing you to spend a minimal amount each season on stylish extras that may only last a single season. By keeping the large pieces of your wardrobe capable of shifting from season to season, you will be able to work on any budget and stay as stylish as ever!

Invest in a couple pieces of trendy items for each season. None of these purchases should be splurges, as you will only be able to wear them for an extremely limited amount of time. Although that designer bag looks like it will be around forever, it probably won’t, so use the money to purchase something a bit more sensible—and something else completely fun! Since many of these items are it now, there is little chance of finding them on sale. Consider shopping at discount stores or buying more inexpensive items, regardless of their quality. Remember, these items will be on the “out” list in a couple of months, so they are not likely to wear out from excess use.

Everyone has those pictures tucked away in the bottom of the photo box. You know the ones…with the outrageous elephant leg bell bottoms, electric colored tops, fingerless gloves, and even—eek—leg warmers! In order to avoid becoming a fashion victim later on in your life as a fashionistas, consider going easy on the fashion trends. Just because super huge hoop earrings, splashy faux flower corsages, and cowboy boots are all the rage this season, you by no means should wear them all at once! Limit yourself to only one or two tremendously trendy items per wardrobe in order to be fashion fabulous instead of a fashion victim!
