Voluptuous was out by the early 60's. The 'thin is in' slogan was born. This look was another rebellion against the older generation but was also a result of war-time rationing. The effects of which were still being felt in Great Britain. Women
everywhere began to believe the saying 'you can never be too rich or too
thin.' Twiggy had the ideal figure and modelled tight mini-dresses
perfectly. Model Jean Shrimpton also had the perfect
look. Toothpick-like actresses like Mia Farrow and Audrey Hepburn became
popular. But later on in the decade Raquel Welch revived the fashion for a
few womanly curves.
