The Twig (1960s)
The 1950s focused on the curvaceous and fuller body type, but the 1960s went in a totally different direction. That hourglass figure was gone, and very thin and long was the top choice. Narrow hips and small waists were all the rage!
Twiggy
Lesley Lawson (Twiggy) was a model at the time, and she brought the body type of rail-thin to the stage. At 16, she changed the entire fashion landscape because everyone wanted to be super thin like her!
