Beatles.



During my research I desided to look through movies about 1960s in Japan. I took 2 movies. 1st is anime movie "Up on poppy hills" and second one is "Funeral parade of Roses".  This movie mostly about not traditional sexual orentation. But somehow it touch subcultures and night live of Tokyo. 
I desided to take 1963 year because in 1964 year in Tokyo was Olimpic games. so in 1963 Tokyo was almost done to face olimpiad.

capture from anime movie "up on poppy hills". 


Pop art style 1960s. Plastic, bright colors and shapes. is part of interior design in main character s fashion studio.




Fashion 1960.
New fresh stream that broke many fashion traditions. First lady Jacqueline Kennedy was fashion icon of early 1960s. I think that best thing that can reflect fashion and style of particular time is music. Popular music - thing that reflect crowd, minds of people. In this point I can notice Beatles, who was extremly popular in that time. Way of there dressing up and hairstyle are smth that everybody want to copy, because everybody want to be little bit Beatles. My character also dressing up in Beatles style, but his hair is totally different from their curly and soft hairs. That shows that he still in fashion, but in his own way. His hairstyle is funky and crazy. it is riot against world.
