Every woman had at least one warm winter coat, usually made of wool or a new synthetic that looked like felted wool. The 1960s long coat lacked a waistline, instead flaring out only slightly into an A-line shape. As women’s dress hems inched upwards, so did women’s coats. Most coats were at or above the knee. Freezing legs was a sacrifice they had to make.

Coat designers played with proportion, adding oversized collars, big buttons, and large pocket flaps to minimize women into doll-like figures. 1960s coat colors were also girly — like pink, pastels, cream, and small checks. 1960s mod colors such as jade green and bright primaries (red, blue and yellow) were also all

The rage!
