ANNEES 60 - MODE - La mini-jupe

Inventée par Mary Quant et mise sur les podiums par le créateur vedette André Courrèges, la mini-jupe est le symbole de l’émancipation de la femme. Portée avec des bottes, elle arrive au-dessus des genoux. La mini-jupe devient tellement courte que les collants remplacent les bas.

ANNEES 60 - MODE - Le monokini

Si le bikini étant réservé aux "pin-up" ou aux vedettes comme Brigitte Bardot, le monokini lui, est le maillot de bain de référence des années 60. Il a la forme d’un maillot de bain une pièce, et le côté sexy d’un deux pièces, sans en dévoiler trop. Un style imparable pour l'époque.

"Tin soldier"

Perhaps it doesn’t quite get the props it deserves, but ‘Tin Soldier’ is a blistering shot of rock-soul that sounds meaty now – let alone in 1967. Written to woo singer Steve Marriott’s future wife Jenny Rylance, it was offered to PP Arnold who declined but turned up to the Small Faces’ sessions to add fire and ballast to the chorus

MUSIC - Crosby, Stills and Nash - Wooden ships

"Wooden ships"

Mellow as yellow custard, folk-rock supergroup Crosby, Stills and Nash’s ‘Wooden Ships’ hides its anti-war message in plain sight, drifting by on noodly guitars, caressed by Stephen Stills’ delicate organ-playing. Stills and David Crosby wrote the song with Jefferson Airplane’s Paul Kantner and both bands released the song in 1969 as the Vietnam War reached its hopeless peak.

CARS (BEAUTIFUL CLASSIC) -1957 Mercedes 300SL Gullwing

Before 1954, Mercedes was not selling the 300SL in America, and they were not going to start soon. It took the effort of one Mercedes lover and importer to get them to change their mind. When the 300SL Gullwing arrived in America, it was so pretty to behold, and the American population loved it.

The car was not just beautiful; it was built with the track in mind. Its racing heritage features included the space frame chassis and quite an impressive body design that featured an aerodynamic shape ready to pierce through the air on a racing track. The 215-horsepower engine was there to confirm what was outside.
