Hippie Clothes
How to Dress Like a Hippie
1. Do have a flower. the song says "in your hair" but the truth is that it's hard to get the things to stay put.
2. No flower? Go for the Pocahontas headband.
3. Hair is long and "unkempt looking." (My mother's words) But it is clean. Yes, we washed our hair. Hey, deep down we were Baby Boomers from suburbia.
4. Women could wear a mini or even micro skirt provided she had decent legs. A chain belt was groovy. Boots or go-go boots were okay too.
5. Men - Jeans, the grungier the better. Leather vests were big too.
6. Fringe - for all. Vest, jackets, pants, shirts. Anything could be fringed.
7. Peace symbol. Every last one had at least one peace symbol.
This chick has it all going. Hippie clothes include:
1. Hip hugger, bell bottom jeans and wide leather belt.
2. Fringed jean bottoms
3. Halter top
4. Headband with flower. (One way to keep the thing in place.)
5. Bare feet. You'll notice from the photo below that the practice of going barefoot tends to make your feet dirty. Plus, you can step in some serious er, stuff.
Ankle bells are in.
6. Obligatory peace symbol. If you didn't want to wear it around your neck you could have a peace symbol belt buckle or pin. In which case you wore beads around your neck.

5. Obligatory peace symbol
Hippie clothes include:
1. Afro hair was the syle for blacks. The bigger the better. And the more radical.
2. Combat style vest. Combat jackets and fatiques were big too.
4. Leather sandals were worn for all occasions. And they helped you avoid all the problems associated with going barefoot.
5. Obligatory peace symbol
Hippie clothes include:
1. Tie dye. We tie dyed everything from clothes to sheets. No, we didn't go to the mall and buy them. We made them. All over the Internet you can find sites that sell tie-dye packages that allow even a beginner to create a masterpiece. They have all kinds of products to make it perfect.
We didn't have any of that fancy stuff. What we had was Rit dye. We'd twist or gather the fabic, secure it with a rubber band and pitch it in a pot according to the Rit directions. You don't get great multicolored perfect patterns, but what you do have is authentically handmade.
2. Facial hair - on men only! Beards or moustashes, but never nicely trimmed.
3. Bell bottom, patched jeans
4. Leather sandals
5. Obligatory peace symbol
