On October 20, Empress Michiko celebrated her 87th birthday. That kind of elegant and exquisite attire has attracted attention in any era.
Especially in the 1960s and 1970s, when the fashion trends were innovative, there were many combinations of the most advanced fashion trends and royalty. Let's recall the fashion when Ms. Michiko was introduced.
■Mini skirt with a short length
The miniskirt was published in 1965 by The Living Source and swept the world. In Japan, in 1967, the British Model Twigy came to Japan and set off a craze. The A-line "miniskirt" worn by Michiko, who is in her 30s, has become the object of women's dreams.
■Sunglasses
Sunglasses were the most advanced sunglasses for fashion trinkets in the 1960s and 1970s. Overseas film actresses are the birthplace, and Empress Michiko also likes large-frame sunglasses.
■Sleeveless dress
Sleeveless dresses are the first of Mondrian costumes published by Saint Laurent in 1965, and sleeveless mini dresses are also popular. Even if you have a lot of exposed skin, you can choose shades such as navy blue and wear noble attire.
■Flared pants
Flared pants were in the 60s, and the trouser style was also popular as an urban style for women. The pants that fit from the hips to the knees and unfold underneath are called "flared pants" and are very popular. It is popular during outdoor official business and retreats such as the Girls' Group Convention.
■ Scottish wool
Scottish wool was originally worn by men and was sporty. However, due to the addition of Pierre Cardin and Givenchy, it was also widely used among women. Miss Michiko also wears a miniskirt. The masculine style material is also worn elegantly.
The familiar terms are also novelties of the 60s and 70s when I look at them now. Michiko's attire has brought a huge change to the fashion of Japanese women.
