Poster with a picture of the photo model and the American sailors.
Fashion and American sailors in Sweden 1964
In 1964, in the midst of the 1960s fashion wave, the style was characterized by elegance and bold expressions. A young model wearing a chic dress with matching handbag and shoes – a perfect representation of the sophisticated yet playful fashion of the time. It is probably a happy coincidence that the American sailors, on shore leave from their ships, added an unexpected background and charm to the photo shoot.
Their presence abroad, often in neat uniforms, reflected an era when American culture fascinated the world, not least through music and film. The sailors, with their relaxed yet disciplined style, contrasted with the model's polished look and gave a glimpse of the global vibe of 1964 - where tradition met trend.
The photo was taken in Stockholm for a fashion report in a weekly magazine.
Our premium quality, heavier, white, matte paper has a natural, smooth, uncoated finish that feels luxurious to the touch.
