The Peacock Revolution in menswear of the 1960s came as a profound
shock to much of America. Men's long hair and vividly colored,
sexualized clothes challenged long established traditions of
masculine identity. Peacock Revolution is an in-depth study of how
radical changes in men's clothing reflected, and contributed to,
the changing ideas of American manhood initiated by a 'youthquake'
of rebellious baby boomers coming of age in an era of social
revolutions. Featuring a detailed examination of the diverse
socio-cultural and socio-political movements of the era, the book
examines how those dissents and advocacies influenced the
youthquake generation's choices in dress and ideas of masculinity.
Daniel Delis Hill provides a thorough chronicle of the peacock
fashions of the time, beginning with the mod looks of the British
Invasion in the early 1960s, through the counterculture street
styles and the mass-market trends they inspired, and concluding
with the dress-for-success menswear revivals of the 1970s
Me-Decade.
