- W2620423390 abstract "Often regarded as frivolous and superficial, fashion under certain circumstances performs an important social role by providing symbols that represent social tensions and conflicts. Betty Luther Hillman argues that fashion and style create a nonverbal discourse based on individual choices. During the 1960s, a period of rapid social change in American society, dress and hairstyles embodied these changes, and television disseminated them to the entire population. Social activists used personal appearance as a way of expressing “their disagreement with and alienation from American culture” (p. xviii). Other Americans interpreted this behavior as “signs of the demise of the gender, sexual, racial and middle-class traditions of ‘respectability’ they held dear” (p. xx). Based on documentary sources such as newspapers, magazine articles and advertisements, periodicals, papers of social movement organizations, court cases, photographs, and memoirs, the book shows how shifting styles of self-presentation played an important role in politics in the 1960s and 1970s. Hillman focuses her analysis on several social groups whose members changed their dress and hairstyles in the 1960s. Young, white, middle-class American men developed hair and clothing styles that led to generational conflicts. Black power activists adopted hair styles and African-heritage clothing which, in turn, influenced New Left and hippie countercultural activists protesting the Vietnam War. These movements produced a conservative backlash. Feminist and gay liberation movements used dress and hairstyles to challenge male and female gender distinctions. Hillman explores the social significance of unisex styles in the 1970s and changing media reactions to them." @default.
