- Time travel to nouvelle vague Paris of the early 1960s. AI upscaled to 4K 60fps clarity.
Wander along the banks of the Seine and chill in sidewalk cafes. Browse among the bouquinistes, monuments and famous districts including Les Halles, Place de la Concorde and Montmartre.
Why not have lunch at the Eiffel Tower restaurant! Somewhat easier to book in those days.
London wasn't the only swinging sixties city when it came to style. Nouvelle Vague movies with their prêt-à-porter trench coats and moody looks, helped cement Paris as the city of chic once more. Beatniks and Beehives were the fashion fad of the early 1960s.
Paco Rabanne, Pierre Cardin and André Courrèges all epitomized French modern style.

I've been physically disabled since birth. I'm retired now & don't get out of the house much, so I love these videos. I always shared them with my 95 year-old dad, whom we lost in December after a fall.
So glad you enjoy them! Me too !!
Continued Grace be on you!!
I am so sorry for your loss 🙏🏻. My Dad passed in Jan.'21 at 82. He loved travelling - was a merchant marine from 1957-1964, so exactly when this lovely film was shot. Our loved ones will always stay with us in our hearts. I often speak to my parents when I am alone. I am very sorry that you cannot leave your home much.
Your dad lived a long life, we can only pray that we can be just as blessed 🥹
Don't need to know your life story but ok 👍🏼
Everyone looked so classy! From children to old people. Love the fashion of the 60s.
My mother was a teenager in the 60s and told me the sleeveless dresses had armseyes that were cut so high they would hurt her armpits. She is still nostalgic about the good bits though, especially that the food in their family (they were rich farmers) was so much better quality and more delicious than what she can buy today from a supermarket or a farmshop.
They wouldn't go out and buy clothing most of the time they needed clothing, they would buy or repurpose fabric and then get one sister to draft patterns for all of the girls (11 girls, 2 boys), a few sisters to do the sewing, and they would all have 1 or 2 formal outfits each aka sunday clothes.
60s fashion was great. One of my fave fashion periods along with the 40s and 50s. But I really love 60s London fashion. It was so innovative, colourful and very timeless.
@@pagethreemodel You've described how I feel about 60s London fashion. Current mainstream fashion is boring in comparison in my opinion, and I see the former as more modern than what's in now.
The way of wearing, and the way of being. All this is lost. Unfortunaly.
Thought the same...no badly dress people there..
That's pretty much the Paris I remember, I was there in 1969. Beautiful city, and I got stuck in the roundabout going around the Arc de Triomphe, going round and round. The cars coming into the roundabout had the right-of-way, so trying to exit meant basically, that you had to pick your exit, close your eyes while blasting your horn, and going for it! (Somehow I survived.)
I had the best bowl of French Onion Soup that I've ever had in my life in Rue St. Denis, consumed while watching beautiful women in wonderful dresses parading down the street. Thanks so much for the memories, because sadly- that Paris will never be seen again. I love your work!
Thank you for sharing your memories! I wish I could travel through time and go back to this amazing decade. It's crazy how both people like you, who actually lived during this time, and people like me (who didn't) are nostalgic. I'm always dreaming about the past...
Only 15 years after WW2. It‘s good to document the older times to compare. Thank you!
Thought the same...imagine it then with the Nazis 😪🤔
@@esterherschkovich6499 Imagine it with now.
I took my first trip to Paris in 1966. Everyone was so beautifully dressed and well mannered and their style made quite an impact on me--for the better! Paris is still very special, but it has changed so much from the way it was back then.
Looks so relaxing. Before mass-tourism. About 8 years ago I went to the Eiffel tower and had to wait in line early in the morning for an hour or so before I was able to catch the elevator to the very top.
It'd totally blow the designer's mind that so many years later, so many people would be lining up to go up there, especially since it was only meant to be a temporary structure.
I was there in 1997 during the summer and there was no long line whatsoever and we 15-year-olds definitely didn't go there in the early morning :D . I think we even took the stairs, but I don't remember if it was from the ground or the middle platform.
This is the closest thing we have to time traveling. Thank you so much for these
Ah man, to have visited it back then must have been so much nicer.
I was 7 years old living in Prague.
Which is just as beautiful.
Ohhhh the simplicity of life back then. We have completely lost how to enjoy life.
The toy sailboat at the end made me smile. I did that in Paris with my kids a few years ago, at Palais du Luxembourg.
I lived in Paris in the late 60s. My mother was a journalist and needed to cover the Paris riots in 68 for work and she loved it there so much we didn't go back to London. We rented a flat in le marais from a female lion tamer. I spoke perfect French in a couple of months. The Paris that I remember then was true 1960s bohemian beatnik rhapsody. Jane Birkin the Rolling stones etc all came to mum's parties
This was such a charming little slice of Parisian life. Thanks for posting!
When I see these images I still just can’t believe I live next to the Eiffel Tower and in the city of my dreams ♥️ 7 years of marriage with this wonderful land 🥰😍
sounds expensive 😫
Just like me! It's not Paris but I'm so happy and lucky to live in my favorite city ^_^
Seriously?!!!!???? I want to be your friend. I live and love Ireland,but to be in Paris J, what a life,hope you have watched the before movies with Julie Delpy.
I’m here with my feline friends,it’s dark but warm ,how’s things there? Ce va?
@@hazm3372 A little bit! 😅 but I came here with nothing! Just looking for my luck!
Omg that boy looks like he could totally blend into 2022!
Paris was so much better in 1962 than in 2022!
Everything was because people respected other people.
The culture is totally different. Very few French people anymore.
@@eric_in_florida 1962 "accords d'Evian" . Because people of Paris respected people of Algeria so much ?
Quand un pays a des frontières il ressemble à son peuple.
@@gauloise6442 The No Go Zone in Paris is a place even police stay away from. St. Denis and Clichy is where my aunt lived for 50 years.
This was in my lifetime! I just wish I'd been in Paris to experience it...🙂
Lovely images, nice to see American cars driving in Paris. I spotted a 1955 Ford crown Victoria and another Ford from that era. Driving an American car in the 1950's in Europe had a certain cachet.
So glad I've been up the Eiffel Tower twice
I've been up once but walked up..big mistake as it made me dizzy. I'm glad I've been up there though.
Back then where everybody didn't need to take a photo of everything and just enjoyed the moment. Also because phones weren't invined back then
Great video! Thanks for sharing.🗼
Beautifully restored
Muitíssimo obrigado pela postagem Glamourdaze. Paz e bem.
Amazing wish I was there.
Oh la, la/ Mes parents se sont fiancés à Paris en Juillet, puis mariés à Dieppe en septembre. c'est amusant de voir cela. A cette époque, ils roulaient en scooter. Mon père revenait de la guerre d'algérie, et ma mère travaillait dans une compagnie d'assurance dans le 8ème arrondissement. A noter quand ils sortaient, il y avait toujours un chaperon pour être sûr que rien de "spéciale" allait se passer entre les deux. Merci !
Ein wundervolles Video! Danke!
No cellphones or kids on tablets, just good old people making eye contact, smiling, conversating and enjoying the view 😌
This is gorgeous! Thank you very much! When all was beautiful!🎀
This looks absolutely amazing 😍
Looks like scout footage for the movie "Charade" circa '62.
I was there in '93, what a fantastic trip, that makes me want to find my video of...
Hey!! I saw myself and my mom!!
Not really. 😉 We were there for the summer in 1960. I was 7.
The French were still eating baguettes back then which I loved to see...and they were eating them with finesse! A beautiful moment in time...and I'm glad I visited France years ago as it's a beautiful country.
Magnifique 🥰👍
Stunning and the hey days.
Beautiful video thank you!! 💖💖💖
Ce sont des images choquantes ! Ou est la diversité qui a fait la France et sans qui ce pays ne serait qu’un autre pays du tiers monde ? 😇😂
la diversité détruit la France
Went to Paris recently, all that stuff is still there.
But the parisians have changed......
@@Swingguido Nah, they still rude as hell lol
@@GasPipeJimmy Ah, an internet racist. How edgy and unique 🙄
@@psyjax2 he was talking the people not their behavior
@@jesusisnotgod4265 Well, of course the Parisians today are different. This film is over 60 years old. I reckon many of these people have passed away by now.
Ooh la la.....great video thanks.
Fantastic.
sixties. last time when fashion was really fashion, all people looked elegant and classy. before - poliester/fast fashion/leggins and abnegacy era 😊
Gorgeous
I cannot wrap my mind around the fact that this was now 60 years ago.
Superb, just love these videos
Wow amazing work
La belle France 😊
Loved this Video❤
super,amazing - see yyou on my side.💯
I need a jambon-Beurre now and it's your fault! ^___-
Same, this sandwich and coke looked delicious hahaha
Wow 👌🌹🌸😍🌟 qué magnífica bellísimo
J'aurais aimé que ces vidéos soient plus longues.
Oui moi aussi
1:04 Note the originale halles from Victor Baltard in the background!
The girl in a red dress at 0:55 is so stunning beautiful. It would be great if she would live also today.
So true!
Une manière d'être, de vivre, de s'habiller. Tout cela est perdu.
Some of these folks are still alive today.
It's only 1962 not Victorian times!!
@@richardjones8699 😂
Google images of Paris now. Ever been there recently? It’s literal hell on earth. Gee, I wonder how that happened? I wonder who’s responsible for that swift demographic change?
We were never even asked.
Ma perché colorare le immagini se sono così belle in bianco e nero
💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗
❤🗼❤⚘
Super.. encore !!!
Est ce le vrai son d'époque que nous entendons où est ce faux ?
Paris with french people
we would love to request licensing of this video for a small theatre live event. is there a way we can contact you?
bring back to 24p
We're is the Melanin
Is this real footage or AI?
Whatever you do, don’t color balance the footage.

Men dressed and acted like men, and women dressed and acted like women. They were normal, whatever that means. Today it's different. We have the worst dressed and behaved people of all time.
