GLOBAL — From mod fashions to boy bands, the 1960s are known for introducing myriad trends that have set the tone for style and entertainment. A popular singing sensation during the era was The Four Seasons, a rock and roll band with chart-topping hits such as “Sherry” and “Walk Like A Man.” The upcoming film Jersey Boys hits the big screen on June 20th, telling the story of the group’s rise to fame. But the harmonizing tunes are not the only reason to put this movie on your must-watch list, the cool fashions are just as inticing and might inspire a 60s fashion revival. Here are a few 60s-inspired pieces to put on your radar.
