Ladies Coats / Jackets 1960s. Ladies coats and jackets in the 1960s varied in style, from short, tailored jackets to long and loose coats. Below are some examples of ladies coats and jackets from the 1960s including a Cher crocheted jacket and a Christian Dior Boutique jacket.
A Cher crocheted jacket with matching hat, 1960s A pink, purple, and brown intricately crocheted psychedelic full-length jacket with insets of satin lining, button and snap closures in a diagonal fashion down the front, tube-like decorations at the bodice, bottom, and cuffs, and felting and boning at the collar, bearing an interior label stitched in gold thread and inscribed, “DEL,” accompanied by a matching hat with a gold and jeweled pendant at the center forehead. At the peak of her groovy BoHo chic period, Cher had this coat and hat made exclusively for her. Colorful crocheted garments – even crocheted bikinis – were all the rage during the late 1960s and early 70s during the peace-loving hippie Woodstock era.
