    The iconic 60s French actor, Alain Delon, who’s film “Le Samourai” was a huge sartorial inspiration for many.  This striking blue-ish-grey coat is definitely something to behold.

    Fantastic photo taken in the late 1960s of British working class kids.  Although we look at this as a “subculture” look nowadays, back then this was the mainstream look for those who wanted to be “in crowd”.

    Very hep pic from Provence, France in the 60s.  Great juxtoposition of youth/vigor, and experience/twilight years.  They both look like they’re very happy with where they are at in life.
